Smoked Mashed Potatoes
Servings 6 -8 servings
Calories 314kcal
Ingredients
- 2 ½ lbs potatoes peeled and diced into large chunks I use russets
- ½ cup chicken broth
- ¼ cup butter softened
- 4 oz cream cheese softened and cut into cubes
- ¼ cup whipping cream
- ¼ tsp salt
- additional butter and dried parsley for topping optional
Instructions
- To cook the potatoes, I add 1/2 cup chicken broth to the Instant Pot with the potatoes. The pressure cook on high for 12 minutes with a manual quick pressure release. However, If you don't have an instant pot just boil them instead for about 15 minutes until tender.
- With the Instant Pot method, there is no need to drain the potatoes. Just mash with a potato masher until about 75% mashed. Add in the butter, cream cheese, whipping cream, and salt. Mash until they reached the desired consistency.
- Spead into a half sized aluminum pan. Place on a 225 degree preheated smoker for 1 hour. Top with a couple of tablespoons and butter and sprinkle with dried parsley if desired. Put back on the smoker for a minute to melt the butter. Serves 6-8.
