From the Markdown Cheatsheet linked on this page

Code

Wrap your code with 3 backticks (```) on the line before and after. If you specify the language after the first set of backticks, that'll help us with syntax highlighting.

      ```html
      <p>This is code!</p>
      ```

To be fair, it would have been helpful if the Markdown Cheatsheet was referenced at any point during the Ask a Question process, but for some reason it isn't.

If any of the higher-ups happen to read this thread, hopefully they can implement this small addition or explain why it isn't there.
