  • Some large russet potatoes

    Potato ingredients with thermometers
  • Clean and dry your potatoes. Brush them with olive oil or rendered bacon fat (in liquid form).
  • Roll the potatoes in BBQ rub. Insert RFX MEAT into a few of the potatoes of different sizes/shapes. (It's hard to push the probe in, actually. Just apply firm, even pressure until the probe is up to the recommended immersion line.)
  • Set the high-temp alarm on your ThermoWorks app for 203°F (95°C) and put the taters in the smoker.
  • Smoke the potatoes, checking about every 15 minutes that the probes aren't being pushed out of the potatoes—because they will be!
  • When the high-temp alarm sounds, verify that the potatoes are fully cooked in the thermal center by using your Thermapen ONE.
  • Carefully remove the spuds and serve with all your favorite toppings!
