6 Servings

Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
3Baking potatoes
Oil; prefer canola or corn
¾cupGreen chilis roasted/chopped
¾cupMonterey jack cheese; grated
cupRed onion; chopped
1cupHalf-and-half
Salt & Pepper to taste
Nutmeg

Directions

Prepare the smoker for barbecuing, bringing the temperature to 200-220 degrees F.

Slice the potatoes into chunks about 1 inch thick. Coat each chunk with oil.

Place the potatoes on a small grill rack, transfer them to the smoker, and smoke for 50 to 75 minutes, or until they are partially cooked and well perfumed with smoke. When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, slice them thinly.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and grease a baking dish. Layer one-third of the potatoes with about one-third of the chile, cheese, onion, half-and-half, salt, and pepper. Repeat the layers until all the ingredients are used. Dust liberally with nutmeg.

Bake, uncovered, for 40 minutes. Uncover the dish and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are meltingly tender. Serve warm.
