freezable mashed potatoes

09/08/10 		I would like to make your freezable mashed potatoes for 100 people. Here is my question: I need to reheat and serve them from my 18 qt roaster ovens. How would you do this? And should I add extra butter and milk or cream to them after they're hot to make them creamier?

Thaw them in the refrigerator before reheating.

You could do this in 2 ovens, or three. Pam the roaster pan. Preheat at least 20 minutes. Stir occasionally while heating, and allow at least an hour. Turn to 180 when middle is at least 165.
