Using a mandoline or crinkle cutter, slice the potatoes to create waffle cuts by rotating the potato 90 degrees between each slice
Place the potato slices in a large bowl of cold water to remove excess starch, which helps achieve the right amount of crunchy texture
After soaking, drain the slices and pat them dry with a paper towel to prevent oil splatter during frying
Heat oil in a deep frying pan oven to 350°F
Fry the potato slices in batches, ensuring they are in a single layer, until they turn golden brown and crispy, about 3 minutes, flipping as needed; ake sure they don’t stick together
Place the chips on a wire rack to dry and continue to fry the rest of the chips
While the chips are still hot, toss them in the BBQ seasoning mix to ensure the best flavor adherence.
