Cut an Idaho potato about 5 inches long in half. With a spoon scrape out the center of both halves, enough to hold a wiener. Insert the wiener in the cavity, spread with margarine, a dash of salt and pepper and chili sauce. Butt the potato together, use 2 toothpicks to hold. Grease outside liberally with butter or margarine. Put into oven, bake until potato is well baked. With serving of cole slaw or similar salad, this will be a most appetizing meal.
