Smoked Chicken, Spinach, Apple & Cheese SaladThis recipe is adapted from one that appeared in Bon Appetit in 2004. I added smoked chicken breasts, candied pecans, Gouda cheese and bacon to the original. I also added apple juice concentrate and mayonnaise to the dressing. The recipe makes two very large main dish salads or 4 smaller servings. If you are not into smoking foods… |

Smoked Stuffed Vidalia OnionsThis dish was a result of wanting to get rid of some on hand ingredients that were used in other meals earlier in the week. Since I was going to hot smoke some fish for dinner I thought I would trying smoking stuffed onions with fish at the same time. The result came out reasonably well. The onions were a deep brown color with a… |

Bacon Crusted Texas BrisketPull out the smoker for this one or be prepared to use your grill. I recommend charcoal over gas. This is time consuming but worth it. I found this recipe in Steven Raichlen's Cookbook; "How to Grill by Steven Raichlen (Workman, 2001)." |

Mesquite Smoked Pork Tenderloin with Bourbon-Ancho/Pasilla SauceThis recipe is adapted from one in Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill cookbook. The original browned the pork then roasted it in the oven. Instead I smoked the pork with Mesquite wood chunks. Mesquite can overpower food and make it bitter if too much is used… |

Pecan Wood Smoked Chicken Thighs with Ginger Apricot GlazeThese are tasty chicken thighs. I used Pecan wood chunks to smoke the thighs then glazed them with Ginger Apricot Glaze at the end of the cooking process. If you don't have a smoker grilling is fine but you won't get the subtle flavor from the sweetness in the Pecan wood. I removed the skin before glazing to reduce some fat… |

Monster Shrimp With Orange Chili SauceThese are big shrimp, the ones that ate the other shrimp. When they opened the cage door after the death match, these are the shrimp that walked out of the ring. Don't turn your back on the grill while you're cooking these -- someone's liable to abscond with them. |

Cherry wood smoked chicken thighs with Heinz 59 sauce/glazeThis is an easy but tasty dish for a summer barbeque. I used thighs but any cut of chicken will work. Just don't overcook if using breasts. If you don't have a smoker use the grill over medium high indirect heat. I used 3 1/2 ounces of cherry wood chunks. Cherry or Apple wood add nice smoke flavor to chicken. Use soaked chips if… |

Smoked Baby Back RibsThese are tasty ribs. I made them for Father's Day this weekend. The ribs had plenty of meat on them. The key to this type of cooking is not to be in a hurry. The results of waiting while the ribs slow smoke is worth the time. Slow and low is the attitude here. A constant temperature is also important; 225' is perfect for… |
