Got the last of the ripe cayennes on to cold smoke for a few hours with cherry smoke. Love cherry smoke it's so sweet. Here's a before, after shot to come. They'll be going in the dehydrator after this.

Smoking chillies and then dehydrating them inside is one of those things that can just challenge a marriage a little on a given day. Smell's freaking great to me!!

Bought a nice wine and am brining a couple of chooks to do tomorrow on the rotisserie as penance.

They will of course be smoked.

With cherry wood. :whistle:

And the after pics

Going into the dehydrator, into the jar and a sample of powder. Using some on the chickens tonight, can't wait.

You speak the truth my friend, I always try and save at least one or two days of vacation for the fall just to smoke peppers/make sauce without my wife knowing so she isn't in the house :shh:

Though an outdoor propane burner is on my wishlist both for double use in homebrew and outdoor sauce mashin'!

I got some amazing peach wood last season that is starting to run dry without my wood guy getting any other leads on some yet, it was/is amazing with the peppers! Try it if you can find a good source! Its sweet but tastes less bitter to me than cherry!

Surprised someone hasn't raised this before, I use the link off photo bucket and drop it in the link here and it spits out code on the side. So I have been making it difficult for myself it seems…

I have peach tree in the back, every two years it gets a hard prune, so hopefully won't have to buy again after next season for a while.
