Default Smoked Bacon Wrapped Potatoes


This has fast become one of my favorites. Either made in the smoker or
on the grill, they are delicious and impressive at BBQs'
And what's not to like about a take on twice baked potatoes.

Here's how it's done

In the meantime, here's the recipe.

Smoked Volcano Potatoes

2 russet potatoes
1/2 cup sour cream + 2 spoonfuls to top with before serving
1 cup of grated cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
2 tablespoons of diced green onion
4 strips of bacon for wrapping potatoes
2 to 4 strips of bacon for potato filling
1/2 stick of butter

1. Preheat smoker to 250 degrees.
2. Wash potatoes, poke with a fork, cover in olive oil and salt, wrap
in foil, and place on rack.
3. Smoke potatoes for 2.5*3 hours or until slightly tender.
4. Cut the top of potato off and scoop out potato filling. Leave
enough potato intact for support.
5. In a separate bowl, mix potato filling with chopped bacon, butter,
sour cream, and cheese.
6. Wrap potatoes with bacon securing with toothpicks.
7. Fill potatoes with filling – top with cheese.
8. Place back in smoker for 45 minutes – 1 hour.
9. Top with sour cream and green onion (sour cream will heat and run
down the side of potato).
10. Enjoy!
