Bake the whole potatoes till fork tender, remove from the oven, cut in half and set aside and let cool. Scoop out some of the potato to make a canoe (you can do this the day before).
If done ahead of time, bring to room temperature, lightly oil top and bottom of each potato skin, liberally cover both sides with wild willy rub (If you want smaller pieces, cut in half/quarter depending on the size of the potato) and place on an on a oiled grate(so smoke can pass through) skin side down and place in smoker for 45-60 minutes, remove, top with cheddar cheese, and bacon crumbles, and smoke another 10-15 minutes until cheese is bubbly. Top with scallions if using and serve with sour cream. |
