Ken is back at the smoker again and doing Smoked Horseradish Potatoes this time. These were amazingly good!!! In fact, I was pleasantly surprised. A smokey flavor paired with horseradish (which is my absolute favorite) made for an excellent side dish to accompany the BBQ roast beef we had for dinner. Although you could serve this with any type of beef you wanted, like steak or even burgers.
Nothing like slow-roasting a whole chicken on the BBQ, check out this outstanding Beer Can Chicken Recipe!
Ken is building up quite a little compilation of a smoker recipes on his site, BBQing With the Nolands. When you mash these potatoes they will not have the same consistency as a boiled potato but as one that has been baked. They will remain lumpy but that is the uniqueness of this recipe. Yummy, you will love this one!!
Smoked Horseradish Potatoes
A smokey flavor paired with horseradish (which is my absolute favorite) made for an excellent side dish to accompany the BBQ roast beef we had for dinner.
Ingredients
- 6 large russet potatoes, hot, smoked and peeled
- 3/4 cup whipping cream
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 1/2 Tbsp horseradish
- Kosher salt and pepper
- 4 strips cooked crumbled bacon
- 2 green onion, chopped
Instructions
- Gentle wash the potatoes. Using a fork prick each of the potatoes 5-6 times. (be careful not to stab your finger, I can tell you from experience that it hurts!)
- Smoke potatoes for about 2 1/2 hours using hickory, applewood, or a combination of the two at 225F.
- While the potatoes are smoking cook 4 strips of bacon so they are crispy. Set aside.
- Once the potatoes are cooked through take them out of the smoker and remove the skin.
- Place the meat of the potatoes into a large bowl, and mash together with the cream, butter, and horseradish. Season with salt and pepper.
- Garnish with bacon and green onion.
- Serve immediately.

WOW – These potatoes are making me really, really hungry! I’ve never thought of smoking potatoes! I have a stovetop smoker that would work great for this. Love the idea, the horseradish, and whipped cream. YUM!

Tara, how good do these potatoes look! I make mine with horseradish, but I’ve never thrown in the bacon. I’ve gotta give ’em a try!
