Scalloped potatoes get an incredible upgrade when you smoke them. The wood smoke infuses the creamy cheese sauce and tender potato layers with a subtle smoky depth that you simply cannot achieve in the oven. Topped with a golden, bubbly cheese crust, these are the most requested side dish at any BBQ.

Instructions

Make cheese sauce

Melt butter in a saucepan. Whisk in flour and cook 1 minute. Gradually add milk, whisking constantly. Cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Reserve 1/2 cup of each cheese for the top, then stir in the remaining cheese until melted and smooth.

Layer the dish

In a 9x13 aluminum pan (disposable works great for the smoker), layer overlapping potato slices, cheese sauce, potatoes, sauce — 3 layers total, ending with sauce on top. Sprinkle reserved cheese over the top.

Cover and smoke

Cover tightly with foil. Place on a smoker set to 275°F with hickory or pecan wood. Smoke for 1.5 hours until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife through the foil.

Astuce de chef : The foil traps steam so the potatoes cook through, while smoke still infuses through the edges.

Brown the top

Remove foil. Increase smoker temperature to 350°F or move to a hot grill. Cook uncovered for 20-30 minutes until the top is golden brown and bubbly.

Rest and serve

Let rest 10 minutes before cutting into squares. This allows the layers to set.

Suggestions de service

Let the potatoes rest for 10 minutes before serving — they will be extremely hot and the layers will set for neater slicing.
