Mashed Potatoes like Mom's

No one makes mashed potatoes like my mom! I'm getting close though. I love them. I don't really use a recipe, but this is what I can come up with after making a large batch last night.

4-8 medium sized Burbank Russett Potatoes (yes, the type is VERY important to you non-Idahoans!!!)
3/4 cup butter
1/3 cup milk
1 Tablespoon salt
1/2 tsp pepper

Peel, cut and boil potatoes until fork-tender. In mixer, mix potatoes with butter and milk until no lumps or very few. Salt and pepper to taste. I like to make them taste good enough that no ones needs to add their own salt or pepper and you could eat them without gravy if you wanted!!
