Pit Boss Baked Potatoes
Looking to bake some potaotes on your Pit Boss? This recipe is super simple and will ensure you end up with fluffy potatoes every time.
Equipment
- 1 Smoker
Ingredients
- 4 whole potatoes
- 5 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp sea salt
- 2 tbsp. barbeque rub seasoning (optional)
Instructions
- You need to pick your potatoes first, I would recommend Yukon Gold, Russet or even sweet potatoes. I have listed all my favorite varieties below you can try.
- Give your potatoes a wash to remove any dirt or grime.
- Preheat the grill to medium heat of 400°F, then load the hopper with the wood chip of choice – any flavor works well with potatoes. So, there is no need to switch if you have your meat smoking already.
- Take the potato, pierce it several times with a fork, then cover it with melted butter and top with salt and pepper. Then wrap it in foil if using it, and place it on the grill grate. Close the lid and let them do their thing.
- Once your Pit Boss has reached 400°F put your foil wrapped spuds on the grill grate. Allow the potatoes to cook for 60-90 minutes. After 90 minutes, unwrap and use a fork to check that the potatoes and tender, soft and cooked thought.
- Must sure you have all your favorite toppings. Some of my favorites are sour cream, chives, spring onions, butter, cheese and crispy bacon.
