With Pit sizes being much larger than we all need, There is always extra room for something that has Potential with every cook. Yesterday I tried Pheasant Hearts as a snack while cookin but with not wanting to open the pit lid often they got um yaa. What other Ideas for smoking have you all tried. I know its not just Beef, Pork & Chicken with this group. I know Fatties & ABTs' but what else.

Last time I put in a small pan of kosher salt to get some smoke flavor. I dont think it was in long enough, although it did get some color, I really can't tell any flavor difference.

I would think the Salt taste would be a hard to overcome. Would probably have to be in there awhile to do it. Let us know if you get it to work. Would probably go good in a rub.

Almonds. Ask Neil for the recipe.

Sounds good. Let us know! Dustaway puts em inside of fattys.

Beans, sweet peppers, sausages.

 

[Puppyboy]

Don't forget baked taters and sweet taters.

I rub em in a light coat of oil and wrap in foil. WOW that rhymed. :lol:

Almost forgot about the onions. Peel em, slap on some butter, sprinkle with pepper and wrap in foil.

Wrapped in foil, the onions would take on no smoke though, or do you lettem go without foil for a while?

Aww nuts, you beat me to it.

How about cored cabbage.
Planked cheeses.
Stuffed Tomatoes. Stuffed any vegetable. Stuff it with mac and cheese maybe.

Sweet corn in the husks. I do them in my pit as well as my oven at home. I leave on the silk. I hour at 350 in the oven. I do corn for about 2 hrs in my pit. When done, wear heavy gloves and just peel the husks and the silk basically sticks to the husks and comes right off.

I have not tried it yet, but I have a BBQ U dvd and he did a whole pineapple on his webber with a rotissere ( spelling mod). I guess it would work sitting still. I love grilled pineapple.:!:

Potatoes tossed in oil with salt and pepper and no foil.

Cut the tops and bottom of some onions and toss in S & P with oil, once again no foil. Cutting off the tops and bottoms lets the smoke and seasoning inside once it starts to soften. You could even baste with more oil or butter as they start to get soft.

i do taters and onions and butter/garlic s&p and some bills seasonall in a foil pan just chop it all up and add it together then stick in the pit till the taters are done.. good stuff. also do the corn in the husk. Have done Duck breasts before. quail, fish. list goes on.

Eggs work well when rolled in sausage meat and smoked, sort of like a "Scotch Egg". If you like it a little spicey add some rub to the meat (either coating it or mixed in).

There are loads of things to fill the grate with - Rabbit, Poussin, Meatloaf, Garlic, Nuts, Baked Spuds (Potatoes), Stuffed Peppers etc etc
