Ingredients

  • 2 pounds baby yukon gold potatoes
  • 8 oz cheddar cheese
  • 8 oz bacon

Instructions

  • Preheat your smoker to 275 degrees and get it smoking really good. I used hickory wood for this recipe.
  • Toss the potatoes with a little oil and salt and put them into the smoker until their internal temp reaches 210. about 2-3 hours. Remove and allow to cool.
  • Preheat oven to 500
  • Cut the potatoes in half and scoop out the insides with a melon baller. Place skin side up oin a greased baking sheet and brush the skin with additional oil and salt.
  • Bake the potatoes for about 15 minutes to brown and crisp.
  • Flip them and add the cheese and bacon. Cook another 5 minutes just to melt the cheese.
  • Top with sour cream and scallions and serve.
