Smoky Mashed Potatoes

2 1/2 Pounds Potatoes Washed, Peeled and Cubed
2 Tablespoons Butter
3/4 Cup Milk (More if you like thinner potatoes)
4 oz. Sour Cream
1/2 + 1/8 Teaspoon Salt
1/8 Teaspoon Pepper
1/4 Teaspoon Garlic Salt
1 Tablespoons Adobo Sauce

Boil potatoes for 12-15 minutes or until fork tender. Drain. Transfer drained potatoes to a large stand mixer bowl with the butter. Start to mix on low speed until potatoes are mashed. Add milk, sour cream, salt, pepper, garlic salt and adobo sauce until well combined. Taste and season accordingly with additional salt/garlic salt if desired.

Adobo sauce is a Mexican ingredient and can be found in the Mexican food isle of your local grocery store. The original recipe calls for 2 tablespoons. That is how much I used and I think it might have been a tad too much. So in this recipe I only called for 1 tablespoon. Start with 1 and taste and then add more depending on your taste.
