Placing the grill’s vent above the potatoes helps draw smoke up and around them as they cook. The potatoes go perfectly with Cipolline Onions with Caraway Butter Sauce.

Preparation
Step 1
Prepare a grill for medium-high, indirect heat (for a charcoal grill, bank coals on one side of grill; for a gas grill, leave one or two burners off). Scatter a handful of wood chips over coals if using a charcoal grill, or place in smoker box and place over direct heat if using a gas grill.
Step 2
Toss potatoes and oil in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper. Arrange potatoes over indirect heat and close grill lid, positioning top vent directly above potatoes if possible. Smoke potatoes, turning occasionally, until fork-tender, 45–60 minutes. Transfer to a platter and let cool slightly. Tear all or some of the potatoes open if desired.
