Answer 1: Actually, it does get hot. In fact, if you wrap a potato in aluminum foil and put it in a hot over, the foil will get hot first. This is because metals like aluminum are very good conductors of heat, so they absorb heat very quickly.
Wrap it in foil, loosely, and roast in your oven at 250Â°F (121Â°C) until an internal temperature of 185Â°F (85Â°C), this should be about 1 1/2 hours per pound (but CHECK the internal temp with an instant read thermometer).
