LONGHORN MENU APPETIZERS RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
• Pierce potatoes with a fork. Microwave the potatoes on high until they are soft; approximately 10 to 12 minutes.
• Cut the potatoes in half vertically. Scoop the inside out of the potatoes, until 1/4 inch of the potato shell remains.
• Heat oil to 365 degrees F (180 degrees C) in a deep fryer or a deep saucepan. Place the potatoes in hot oil, fry for 5 minutes. Drain potatoes on paper towels.
• Fill the potato shells with cheese and bacon bits. Arrange them in the prepared baking pan.
• Bake for 7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Serve hot with sour cream.

Steps:

• Set pellet grill at 250 using Perfect Mix Pellets.
• Mix all ingredients together (minus extra ingredients) and put them into a 9x13 pan.
• Smoke for approximately 2 hours mixing every 30 mins.
• Remove it from the smoker when the consistency is right and add some shredded cheese (normally Mexican mix) then bread crumbs to the top.
• Broil @ 400 for 5-6 mins until brown. 
• If you want add 1/2 a chopped sweet onion and a chopped up red pepper.  6-8 strips of bacon can't hurt either.  If you want to change it up you can try chicken or pesto mac too.
