Sonny Bryan's Bean Spice Mixture
Rub
potatoes with olive oil. Place face down on a smoker (grilling
won't give smoked flavor). Smoke at 250-275°F for 1½ to 2 hours.
Potatoes should be firm, but not mushy.
Combine ingredients for bean spice mixture. Mix potatoes with
above ingredients and bean spice mix. If too dry, add more mayonnaise.
Color should be darker due to Creole mustard and taste bold and
spicy.
