Thanks!


An update abt 3.5 hours in... consolidated all the peppers to the top rack and the wood caught fire from keeping the smoker open too long :eek:

This is why I love my WSM :dance:

3/4 of a chimey of lump charcoal, 2 pieces of apple and a piece of pecan :dance:
 
Added 2 more pieces of pecan and half a chimney of lump before going off to bed. All told 15 hours in the smoker.

Added 2 O Habs, 1 banana, and a few squash pepppers to see what would happen. Normally they would air dry for 2 days or so,
but we have a storm coming in and the air is very damp. So I will be finishing in the dehydrator :dance:

Thanks for sharing the finished products! I'm learning so much about all things pepper here, and chipotles are a wonderful way of processing chiles.

Great pics! SL
