Smoked Potatoes Recipe

This smoked potatoes recipe is a fantastic vegetarian smoker side dish. Smoked in a herby marinade and tossed with fresh herbs, this is a fantastic side for your next summer cookout.

These potatoes are smoky, savory, herby. and loaded with flavor. Serve with a heap of fresh creamy coleslaw, smoked brisket gravy, and a simple tomato basil caprese pasta salad.

Our friends gave us an electric smoker for a housewarming gift, and it has been great to smoke amazing things that aren’t meat. We’ve smoked some really fun ingredients like this hard boiled eggs recipe, tofu, and even Cheese-Itz (highly recommend!).  All taste amazing, and you can do so much with an electric smoker besides meat. 

Our smoker has 4 shelves, so I like to throw in a tray of potatoes on if we have extra room. The smoked potatoes only take an hour or two, so they are a great side dish option if you have hungry guests.

What’s In Smoked Potatoes?

See the recipe card below for full ingredient amounts and recipe instructions!

• Potatoes – yellow potatoes, red potatoes, or white potatoes work well in this recipe. Don’t use Russet potatoes, as they don’t hold up as well.
• Spices – you can use your favorite spice blend, I used steak spice which tastes great on these potatoes.
• Garlic Powder: Also a major pantry staple ingredient that gets used in our house daily!
• Red Chili Pepper Flakes: for a little heat! I like to add a few shakes to this recipe to give this dish a nice complex depth of flavor.
• Dijon Mustard – for a really nice flavor and texture, this Dijon is a favorite in our pantry
• Sunflower Oil: our go-to oil for everything, it has a neutral mild flavor, great for roasting or baking! Sunflower is a high oleic oil, so it’s also great to use for all temperatures.

How Do You Smoke Potatoes?

1. Cut & Boil Potatoes: Cube potatoes into small 1/2 inch cubes. Place into a pot and cover with cool water. Bring to a boil for 5-6 minutes until potatoes are halfway cooked.  Drain and place into a bowl.
2. Toss & Season: Toss the potatoes with sunflower oil, garlic powder, Dijon mustard, chili flakes, and Montreal Steak Spice. And place in a smoker-safe container (we use aluminum lasagna trays).
3. Smoke: Place in an electric smoker (or BBQ set at) 250 degrees Fahrenheit, and cook for 1.5-2 hours or until potatoes can be pierced with a fork.
4. Serve along side any other smoked entrees, dishes from the BBQ, or grilled favorites.
