Smoked Potato Salad Recipe (With or Without Mayo)

This smoked potato salad recipe (with or without mayo) is a home run summer side dish, made in the electric smoker. This easy recipe is made with potatoes, bell pepper, and chopped celery, in a tangy dressing.

This easy potato salad in the smoker is a great recipe to make if you have extra space available. The potato salad picks up a fantastic smoky flavor!  You can choose to add mayonnaise after you take the potato salad out of the smoker to make it extra creamy, or leave it as-is without mayo.  Either way is delicious.

We’ve smoked some really fun recipes like deviled eggs eggs, tofu, and even Cheese-Itz (highly recommend!).  All taste amazing, and you can do so much with an electric smoker besides meat.
