Ingredients

  • 8 Russet Potatoes
  • 12 slices Center Cut Bacon
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil divided
  • 1 bulb Garlic
  • ¼ teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 2 cups (556g) Fat Free Greek Yogurt
  • 10 oz Shredded Cheddar or Cheddar Jack divided
  • 2 small handfuls (10-15g) Fresh Parsley minced
  • ½-1 teaspoon Black Pepper to taste
  • 1 handful Chives for garnish

Instructions

  • Ingredient Prep
  • Preheat your Traeger grill to 325ºF with the lid closed.
  • Use a knife to remove the top from the bulb of garlic and peel the outer paper layers away. Place the bulb in a sheet of aluminum foil and drizzle with a teaspoon of olive oil. Add a pinch of salt and pepper on top and close the foil. Set aside.
  • Wash and dry the potatoes. Use a fork to poke holes around them before rubbing with the remaining olive oil and sprinkling with salt.
  • Smoking the Bacon, Garlic, & Potatoes
  • Add the bacon slices directly to the grill grates along with the potatoes and garlic packet.
  • Cook the bacon for 15-20 minutes, watching the slices on the edges of the grill as they may cook faster. Transfer the cooked bacon to paper towel and set aside.
  • Increase the temperature to 450ºF and continue cooking the potatoes until they're fork tender or 200ºF inside, about another 15-25 minutes. Leave the garlic on with the potatoes.
  • Assembling the Twice Baked Potatoes
  • Let the potatoes cool while you chop the smoked bacon and mix it with the roasted garlic (remove from the bulb), Greek yogurt, 6 oz of cheese, parsley, and black pepper. Reserve a pinch or two of bacon for garnishing.
  • Slice the potatoes in half and use a spoon to scoop out the inside into the yogurt mixture. Mix everything together before adding back to the potato skins.
  • Top with remaining 4 oz of cheese and place directly on the grill grates for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is melted and golden brown in spots. Top with chopped bacon and chives.
