Topic: What's a barbecued potato, anyway?
From: Louise
Subject: Sonoran Potatoes

Smoky,

Several years ago, Bon Appetit had a special ''dryrub'' recipe to put on potatoes before Barbequing them. I have gone through the database and am unable to locate this recipe. Can you please find this recipe and Email it back to me or tell me how I can obtain it? Thanks!

Louise

Hi Louise,

That sounds like a Bon Appetit thing.

They may have called themselves "barbecuing" potatoes, but even the US Department of Agriculture limits the term "barbecuing" to meat and poultry.

I have no idea of their recipe, but the name "sonoran" suggests a Southwestern flavor. Let's whip one up.

Smoky's Sonoran Potato Seasoning

Mix ingredients well and put into a shaker topped container. Scrub potatoes, dry, rub with oil and sprinkle heavily with seasoning. Place on grill and cook at 350-400°F. until soft.

Please tell me how it comes out.

Fun,
Smoky
