- Smoke the potatoes. Place the potatoes in the smoker and allow them to cook for about 60 minutes, checking their temperature after 45 minutes.
Ideally, the internal temperature should reach about 205°F when checking with a meat thermometer probe. Baked potatoes are best around 208-212°F, after that, the insides start to get dense and sticky.
Cooking time can vary depending on the size, hot spots in the smoker or grill, and also the amount of food inside the chamber.
