OOF! What a mess! But woo hoo they were good! #blackstone

Poor [Music] guy outdoor cooking potatoes. We’re doing loaded smashed potatoes, cheddar cheese, a big old already cooked up, ready to go. Yeah. I’m going to take these little potatoes. I don’t know. These are little golden potatoes. I boiled them last night. Put a little salt in the water. I’m gonna put them on this Blackstoneone. I haven’t done a Blackstoneone video in quite some time. Yeah, it don’t look perfect because I was cooking bacon on it, so I just spread out the bacon grease because I’m gonna put these potatoes on here and smash them. Whoop! Look at that. Yeah, buddy. Uh, I’m going to get these close together. I’m not going to smash each individual one. I’m going to make it into a big old sloppy mess of potatoes and cheese and bacon with a little sour cream on it. I’ve never done this. Let’s smash. Okay, it’s all right. I had it leveled. I had it leveled on a piece of wood and that didn’t work out too well because these are a little bit harder to smash than I thought. Was sitting out for a little while, too. That’s all right. It’s really not a big deal. We’re just smashing potatoes into a mess of sugar snaps. I didn’t really think about this too much, did I? Oh, I can’t wait to hear the comments. I should have done something. Oh, damn. It’s raining. What am I doing? What am I doing? Well, I really didn’t think these potatoes I really didn’t think these potatoes would stick to this damn thing. Oh, Lord have mercy. I am such a schmuck. Well, if anybody’s still here, there you go. They’re smashed. That tastes good. I’m going to hit them with a little bit of the seasoning at this point. [Music] I I can’t believe I have any subscribers to be honest with you. Yeah, there we go. So, this is not exactly how I had it planned. I need a spatula. Look at those potatoes. What a freaking mess. All right, here we go. I’m in the shed. Yeah, that’s as much as they’re going to get. I really didn’t think it was going to be quite that much of an ordeal, but nevertheless, once we add uh freaking bacon and cheddar and yep, there comes the raindrops. Tried to get out here before this was going to happen. But that’s the way it goes when you cook outside. I don’t I don’t think it’s much. It’s kind of fun cooking in the rain regardless. Uh, I’m going to let these get a little bit crispy on the bottom and then I’ll add the bacon and cheddar and uh and everything. Be right back. Okay, look at I got some butter and I put a little bit of uh what did I put in there? Gar garlic powder. Just a little bit. I’m going to put pour this over here because I think it needs butter. potatoes and butter. They go good together. So, not only did I screw up the smash on these and the Blackstone rolled off its pieces of wood to have this level and it’s raining a little bit. I ran out of propane. I had another one in the garage. I always have spare propane. And uh so they’re a little crispy on the bottom at this point. Let’s get some cheese on here because this isn’t rocket science, right? Sprinkle them some of this. This is cheddar cheese. Cheap old. Yep. Pre-shredded cheddar. No, I did not shred this myself. No, I didn’t. The other fun part is going to be getting this off of this onto a tray. But here’s the thing. I’m not cooking at a restaurant. I’m cooking at home for my family. We’re going to watch some football. Well, at least I am. And uh we’re going to eat these as a little little snack. Little munchy lunch snack. Here’s a bacon. Cook that up this morning. Crumble it up. Got to save a little bit of this for another recipe. You got to have bacon. Got to have bacon. It’s just a little bit more because we all know that bacon makes everything better. Yeah. Yeah, boy. Yeah, boy. I got a little bit more butter in here. I’m not wasting that. Woohoo. All right. I’m going put this over the top. melt that cheese and get it on that tray over there as best I can and give it a taste test and then I’m gonna get on with our lives. Yeah, this is how we do things around here. If you’re new, if you’re new here or worthy, hit that subscribe button. That’d be awesome. Got t-shirt. All right, when we get this ready, we’ll taste it. Like I said, peace. It’s a cheesy bacon potato mess. I’m all right with that. I already got my thumbnail. I’m gonna try this. Now, I do have sour cream in the house. Uh so, I’ll be putting some of that on mine. And like I said, we’re going to have this as a just a tasty little snack, little lunch. Yeah, it may not look beautiful, but it sure does smell good. Cheers. Well, yeah, just what you expect. kind of like a loaded baked potato or even potato skins. Uh yeah, things didn’t work out exactly as planned, but that’s the way it goes. We don’t we don’t edit. We don’t start over. And uh this is very delicious. Try it. You could probably do a better job, but at the end of the day, I got the taste I wanted. And we’re really going to enjoy this. And here comes the rain. Thanks for watching. Peace.

  5. Oh this looks like a fun recipe. Well til the grill almost fell over lol. But can you really mess up a smash? I mean, there's really no rhyme or reason to smashing. But you were having quite a time getting this recipe done. It may not have been pretty, but I bet it tasted amazing.
