    Preheat oven to 350ยบ. Bake potatoes on middle rack until fork-tender, about one hour. Remove from oven and let sit until cool enough to handle.
    Bake bacon on a small sheet pan in the oven for 15 minutes. Cool and crumble.
    Preheat grill to medium heat.Cut potatoes in half, lengthwise, and spoon out the flesh, leaving a half-inch shell. Melt butter in a saucepan and add minced garlic; brush potatoes with mixture. Flip over and butter the bottoms. Place potatoes on grill and cook until crisp, about 4 to 41/2 minutes on each side; remove from grill.
    Layer each potato with equal amounts of cheese, barbecue sauce, and pulled pork.
    Top with sour cream and crumbled bacon; garnish with chives.
