Creamy Mashed Potatoes

A couple weeks ago I made these potatoes with Buffalo BBQ Ribs. They were very tasty I must say. And Trevor just loves his meat and potatoes.

1 (5-pound) bag red potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces (I just used baking potatoes since that is what I had on hand. I did peel mine.)
3/4 cup sour cream
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 (3-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

In a large Dutch oven, combine potatoes and water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat, and simmer for about 10 minutes, or until potatoes are tender. Drain well.

In a large bowl, combine potatoes, sour cream, butter, cream cheese, salt, and pepper. Using a potato masher, mash potatoes to desired consistency.
