Preparation
- 1
Wash and Prepare Sweet Potatoes
Wash the sweet potatoes thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a clean towel. If desired, peel the sweet potatoes, but leaving the skin on can add extra flavor and nutrients.

Cut Sweet Potatoes
Cut the sweet potatoes into uniform cubes, approximately 1 inch in size to ensure even cooking.

Season the Sweet Potatoes
In a large bowl, combine the sweet potato cubes, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, pepper, and olive oil. Toss until the sweet potatoes are evenly coated with the mixture.

Prepare the Smoker
Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C). If using wood chips, soak them in water for about 30 minutes before use for a more flavorful smoke.

Smoke the Sweet Potatoes
Place the seasoned sweet potatoes directly on the smoker grate or in a smoker-safe dish. Smoke for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and have absorbed the smoky flavor.
