Ingredients

• 6 medium Russet potatoes
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 2 cups Whole milk
• 2 cups Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
• 1 cup Barbecue sauce
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 1 cup Cooked bacon, crumbled
• 4 stalks Scallions, thinly sliced
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0 N/A Cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray and set aside.

Step 2

Peel and slice the potatoes into thin rounds, about 1/8-inch thick. Set aside in a bowl of cold water to prevent browning while you prepare the sauce.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook, whisking constantly, for 1-2 minutes to create a smooth roux.

Step 4

Gradually pour in the milk while whisking, ensuring no lumps form. Cook until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the cheddar cheese, BBQ sauce, sour cream, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.

Step 6

Drain the potato slices and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Step 7

Layer one-third of the potato slices in the prepared casserole dish. Spread one-third of the cheese and BBQ cream sauce over the potatoes. Repeat this process two more times, finishing with a layer of sauce on top.

Step 8

Cover the casserole tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.

Step 9

Remove the foil and sprinkle the crumbled bacon evenly over the top. Bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden and bubbly.

Step 10

Garnish with sliced scallions before serving. Serve warm and enjoy!
