Anyone made smoked potato salad?

How do you plan on smoking a potato? The skin of it will act as barrier to the influence of the flavor of the smoke, the interior of the spud won't feel a thing. If making a salad of spuds, I would go the route of boiling them with a bit of liquid smoke in the water. ETA this product will in all likelihood taste like shite.

Have you ever smoked kosher salt and used it as seasoning? I make some once or twice a year and use it to give foods a smoked flavor without having to setup the smoker. I take a baking pan and put a layer of kosher salt. Put it on the top rack of my smoker while I'm cooking other food. I usually leave it in for a few hours.

Using this might be a better alternative that would give your potato salad a more balanced taste. But I'm with CITWTT, it doesn't seem appetizing to me. Let us know how it turns out.

I put potatoes on the green egg all the time and they pick up all of the flavor.

Put them on your smoker for about thirty to forty five minutes then wrap in foil for as long as it takes to finish cooking. Works very well for baked/ smoked potatoes. Never tried a potato salad.

If using skin, scrub well, dry and rub butter or oil on it. Really crisps it up. I eat the skin on a baked potato. Best part.
