1. Peel and Rinse Potatoes.
2. Dice potatoes in large chucks, careful to keep the potatoes sizes similar for uniform cooking time.

4. Place potatoes back in the pot or large mixing bowl, place the butter sticks on top of the potatoes and cover with alumni foil for 10-20 minutes. The steam will finish cooking the potatoes and melt the butter.
