I decided to rehearse some holiday snack foods, so I'd have it down to a science when there's a house full of hungry people. Three items went on the UDS yesterday- MOINKS, ATB's, and Stuffed Chicken Wings. I made the ATB's horizontal style, since I don't have any way to hold them. I cut the side off of the pepper, scoop out the stuff with a spoon, stuffed them with a cream cheese/cheddar cheese filling, and wrapped them in a half slice of bacon. The MOINKS were just generic cheap pre-made meatballs wrapped in bacon. The stuffed wings are a Thai delicacy. You debone the wings (MUCH harder than it sounds!) and stuff with a pork/rice mixture seasoned with red curry sauce. Normally, they only use the middle part of the wing, chopping the drummette off, but I like to do the whole thing (Except the tip). It took me 20 minutes to de-bone 6 wings, and only one was perfect, with no holes in the skin. The results? The MOINKS were pretty ho-hum, at least compared to the other items. The wings were great, but all out of proprtion to the amount of work required. The ABT's were outstanding! I made way too few, even just for the two of us. And they're easy! Now, the pron:
BTW- I smoked with a little pecan @ 250 or so, for 1-1/2 hours. Smoke was a little stronger than I'd like it- I guess snacks absorb a lot of smoke!
