Preparing the Potatoes

1. Wash and Slice

Wash the Russet potatoes thoroughly under running water. Using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife, slice the potatoes into thin rounds (about 1/16 inch thick).

2. Soak the Slices

Place the sliced potatoes in a large bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. This will help them become crispier when fried.

3. Drain and Pat Dry

After soaking, drain the potato slices and pat them dry using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove excess moisture.

Frying the Chips

4. Heat the Oil

In a deep frying pan or a deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to ensure the oil reaches the correct temperature.

5. Fry the Potatoes

Carefully add a handful of the potato slices to the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 3-4 minutes or until the chips are golden brown and crispy.

6. Drain the Chips

Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried chips from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with salt while still hot.

Making the BBQ Seasoning

7. Combine Ingredients

In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and liquid smoke. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.

Seasoning the Chips

8. Season the Chips

While the chips are still warm, sprinkle the BBQ seasoning mixture over the chips, tossing them gently to ensure even coverage. Adjust seasoning to taste.
