Ingredients

  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon prepared horseradish
  • 1 slice from a medium onion, about 1/2 inch thick
  • Vegetable oil
  • 3 to 4 slices bacon, chopped
  • 2 ounces fresh mild goat cheese, softened
  • Potato chips or carrot sticks

Method

  • Prepare the smoker for barbecuing, bringing the temperature to 200F to 220F.
  • Spoon the sour cream and 1 tablespoon of the horseradish into a smokeproof baking dish.
  • Rub the onion slice with the oil.
  • Place the sour cream and onion in the smoker side-by-side and cook for 30 to 40 minutes.
  • The sour cream should be runny but not separated, and the onion well softened but not cooked through.
  • While the sour cream and onion cook, fry the bacon in a small skillet.
  • Drain the bacon.
  • Stir the cheese into the sour cream until well combined.
  • Chop the onion and crumble the bacon.
  • Mix into the sour cream.
  • Add as much of the remaining teaspoon of horseradish as desired.
  • The smoked horseradish will mellow in flavor, and any added at the end creates a pleasantly pungent bite.
  • Chill for at least 30 minutes for best flavor.
  • Serve with potato chips or carrot sticks.
