kosher salt and pepper to taste.
The recipe is simplicity itself. Boil potatos until fork tender, drain. Add butter in one tbsp. peices and add milk. Mash with your preferred implement until the consistency is semi-smooth. Good mashed potatos need lumps. Add kosher salt and pepper to taste.
eta: RT, couldn't you have started with something a bit more complicated? I bet even Hank can make decent mashed potatos

As good as this is, scale back the butter a tad, avoid the milk entirely, and substitute 2/3-3/4 of a carton of sour cream instead.
Best mashed you'll ever have. I was a disbeliever until I tried it.
