Ingredients
  • 5 large russet potatoes
  • olive oil, kosher salt, pepper
  • 1 1/2 cups milk (I used whole milk) warm
  • 1 stick butter at room temp
  • 1/2 Tbsp BBQ seasoning
  • 1/2 Tbsp Old Bay seasoning
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • Optional: green onion for garnish
Instructions
  1. Brush all sides of the potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with kosher salt and pepper. Put the potatoes in a smoker set to 250 degrees for 2 1/2 hours.

  2. Remove the potatoes and cut them in half lengthwise. Let them cool slightly.

  3. Scoop out most of the potato from the skins and put in a bowl. Add the warm milk, softened butter, BBQ seasoning, Old Bay seasoning, kosher salt, and pepper. Beat on low speed with a hand mixer for 1 minute. Taste for seasoning and add more BBQ, Old Bay, kosher salt, and/or pepper if needed and beat 20 more seconds.

  4. Stir in 1 1/2 cups of the cheese. Scoop this filling back into the potato skins and top each with the remaining cheese and green onions if desired.

  5. Put the potatoes back into the smoker set to 250 degrees for 30 more minutes.

    Note: I had the best luck using a metal spatula to get the potatoes back into the smoker and removing them.
