I usually do these with plain potatoes, but wanted to try some smoked ones.
Also usually do this with raw potatoes and slice them thin.

I smoked some potatoes with a small bit of mesquite.

Sliced and dipped into flour...then into a beer batter. (any onion ring batter works)

Batter
1 cup flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
enough of 1 beer to make it the consistancy you like

They are crunchy on the outside and tender in the middle.

They were tasty! I couldn't taste the smokey flavor as much as I would have liked.
I like mine slced thin..the thinner the better.

Thanks for checking out my taters.
 
As usual looking good that would be a good batter for pickle slices too.....
 
...and good for fried jalapeno "bottlecaps", too.
Thanks for the recipe and outstanding photos.:mrgreen:
 
Thank you! I think I like anything battered and fried. :redface::grin:
 
Very Nice!

I'm going to try those next week!:lol:
I love smoked Taters. Great idea Cowgirl.

I have smoked a lot of Taters and I have found that if I Wave them for 3 minutes on High.
Let them cool, then slice. They will take on more smoke.
It must be a texture and pore thing. I'm not sure.

Thank you! I think I like anything battered and fried. :redface::grin:
