preservation peppers ready for the smoker

[SavinaRed]

I just picked these this morning. Some jalapeno, serrano, bishops, habs and morugas. After the smoker they will hit the dehydrator.

I just took one serrano and 1 hab that I just smoked and added this to a jar of hotsauce I just made.
 
12 serrano
6 jalapeno
12 habanero
1/4 onion
6 cloves of garlic
2 TBS honey
1 tsp salt
1/8 cu of apple cider, carrot juice and orange juice.
 
Just adding the 2 smoked peppers gave it that nice smoky taste that is there but not over powering the sauce. Experimenting with sauce is allot of fun.

The smoker really speed up the dehydrating process by quite a few hours. Normally it takes 36-48 hours to dehydrate and in this cold weather outside my peppers were done by 6am.

That sauce looks very tasty!!!

I gave some to the guys at work who thought they wouldn't like a slight smoke flavor in a sauce and they loved it. Lucky Dog inspired me lol
