Tips for making the best barbecue potato chips.

While not required for this recipe, you can choose to soak your potatoes to remove excess starch (this can prevent soggy chips). Simply soak the potato slices in a bowl of cold water for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours. Then drain and pat the potatoes dry to remove the excess water

More helpful tips for you.

1. Russet potatoes that are sliced thin will become more crisp. On the other hand, for a denser, slightly sweet chip, you can use Yukon Golds.
2. When you slice your potatoes, slice them to 1/16" to ⅛" thick.
3. Using a mandoline to slice your potatoes will ensure uniform potato slices and more uniform cooking.
4. Toss (using tongs) or shake the basket with the potato slices at about halfway through baking (about seven minutes). This helps to keep the chips from sticking together and helps them bake more evenly.
5. When you transfer the chips from the air fryer to cool make sure that they are spread out rather than stacked on top of one another.
6. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to make this recipe in batches.

1. Prepare your potatoes if you have not done so. This means slicing, soaking, and drying them if needed. Then place the potatoes into a large bowl and spray or brush them with the oil (toss and spray again so that they are coated on both sides).
2. Place your seasonings in a small bowl and use a whisk or fork to blend them together. Sprinkle half the seasonings over the potatoes and then toss them. Repeat this process with the remaining seasonings.
3. Remove the basket from your air fryer and lightly spray it with oil. Preheat your air fryer to 300°f.
4. Place the potato slices into your basket so that the edges of the potatoes are touching.
5. Air fry the potatoes for 15 minutes and then flip them over. You can add additional seasonings as desired at this point.
6. Continue to air fry until your chips are browned to your liking (10-15 minutes). Then carefully transfer the chips to a cooling rack to cool and dry out.
7. You can season as desired and serve.
