Introduction Today, the interest in BBQ is growing like never before, with local competitions springing up all over and slow-cooked, smoked meats making their way from hard-to-find back-woods shacks into manicured suburban neighborhoods. People love barbecue and are expressing that love by learning how to do it. If you’ve decided to learn the craft, or even if you have cooked a few butts in your day, you’ve probably come across the million blogs, forums, books, and magazines that are available to those that want to perform carnivorous alchemy, and you’ve likely been overwhelmed by it all. I know I too was. Nowadays, the word barbecue is synonymous with outdoor grilling but for a long time they were considered very different. The history of grilling and barbecue and how they’re connected can be at times confusing but the one thing that historians agree on is that barbecue derived from the Native American word “barbacoa,” which was the word for a raised wooden rack that was used, among other things, to cook meat and other food over a low fire for an extended period of time. Today more and more people use gas or electric grills that allow them to adjust the heat for quick grilling or slow barbecuing. And there remains a high demand for wood grills — there's just something about cooking the old-fashioned way. Since the time that the concept of cooking food was created, there have been many different ways to prepare and cook food.

All of these different methods can create different tasting experiences, making for more diverse additions to dinnertime. One common way of cooking is using a grill, more specifically for barbecue. Here is how this style of cooking became popular. Over the years, there have been many changes to the way that people cook food, and specifically the way that people barbecue their meat. Grills have gone from being inefficient and messy to being popular and relaxing methods of cooking used by the world today. Originally all barbecue and grilling was done with logs of wood as the sole fuel source. Energy from the combustion cooked the meat, and smoke from the wood and from dripping juices imparted a distinctive seductive scent that is the essence of barbecue. But it is difficult to control energy and flavour when cooking with logs, so today, only a few expert pit masters outfitted with special rigs cook with logs only. In fact, Wood Pellet Grilling isn’t a Trend but It’s Impending — here’s why. Invented in the 1980s, the wood pellet grill was once dubbed the grill of the future. It’s finally earned that title. It used to be that pellet grilling was for nerds. Wood pellet grills are powered by electricity and fulled by wood pellets. An auger pushes compressed wood from a holding chamber on the side of the grill to a fire pot under the grates, where a temperature gauge and a fan work together to maintain a stable heat. The original inventors of the pellet grill; they have been perfecting the art of wood-fired cooking for over 30 years. A high quality grill and thermometer work hand-in-hand to create incredible food, cooked to perfection.

Wood Pellet grills deliver consistent smoke and heat that is easily adjusted. The smoke gives everything you cook a natural woodfired taste. There are no flare-ups because the flame is kept safely away from the food. And there is no need to monitor a pellet grill — the temperature stays where you want it for as long as you want. Cooking with all-natural hardwood makes your best recipes taste even more delicious. Cooking with a wood Pellet Grill is so versatile; you can basically cook anything you can imagine, from grilling, smoking, baking, roasting and slow braising. From low and slow to hot and fast, you can cook everything with confidence and ease. And it’s all operated by a controller that maintains precise temperature so you can spend more time with the people who matter most and less time watching the grill!

Why Pellet Grills Are Good ❖

Simplified Smoking

Whether would-be pit masters want to admit it or not, part of the allure of barbecue is its inherent difficulty. Fires, fuel stacks, air flow, internal temperatures, ambient temperatures and humidity levels — all must be monitored for hours (sometimes days) on end. To some grillers, that sounds like a great use of a weekend. To others, a nightmare. Pellet grills make things easier. Set the temperature, press “ignite” and wait ten minutes. Once it hits the target temperature, the grill’s on-board computer does all the monitoring for you, automatically adjusting fan speed and pushing pellets into the fire pot as necessary. If you’re into barbecue for the flavour, not the craft, it’s the most efficient way to go — properly smoked meats and vegetables with minimal effort. ❖

Legitimately Useful Smart Controls

Smart tech may feel anachronistic to the very analogue nature of cooking meat over fire, but it’s immensely helpful in the pellet grill arena. Wood pellet grills monitor temperature in the fire pot, ambient air temperature in the grill and internal temperature of the meat you’re cooking by default. Today’s grills connect to your home’s Wi-Fi, and you connect to them via smartphone app, meaning you can control them even when you’re not connected to your home’s Wi-Fi (like, say, if you go on a quick beer run). And though you can operate the grill using the interface on the front of the grill, all the functions found there

are available on the app, and a little more. Load recipes from your phone onto the grill and set it on cruise control and troubleshoot any grill performance issues that arise, too. It’s simple, noninvasive smart technology that you can use, or not use. ❖

Surprising Fuel-Efficiency

A bag of wood pellets costs about $20. When cooking at smoking temperatures, these grills burn about a pound every two to three hours, which comes out to roughly $1 per hour of cook time and 50 hours of cook time per bag. For the sake of comparison, propane gas tanks are usually $30 for a full tank and $20 for refills. You’ll typically get 20 hours of cook time out of propane grills, even when cooking on low. Charcoal and lump coal is even less efficient. ❖

Limited but Capable Grilling

Pellet grills aren’t perfect. The most legitimate complaint against them is their inability to create the quick char of their gas and charcoal brethren. That’s because wood pellet grills typically have a sheet of metal over the fire pot, thus they cook with indirect heat rather than the standard direct heat from traditional grills. No wood pellet grill is capable of safely reaching the 800-plus temperatures of gas and charcoal. But newer grills from Traeger and companies like Green Mountain do show marked improvement. Both companies now make grills that meet or exceed 500 degrees at grate-level (they used to top out around 400 degrees). That’s ample energy to effectively sear a steak or pork

chop. In short: it won’t keep up with the searing chops of a gas or charcoal grill, but it’s plenty capable in its own right.

The Structure and Component When you first look at your wood pellet grill's inner workings, you may feel somewhat overwhelmed. It has a few components that all work together and make the appliance such a winner. ❖

Hopper: This is the part of the machine you will fill with hardwood pellets.



Auger: This is the component that transports the pellets to the fire pot. Think of it as the motor of your wood pellet grill.



Fire pot: The area below the grill where the actual fire will be.



Hot rod (igniter element): After the auger moves the wood pellets into the fire pot, the hot rod will ignite, and the fire will start.



Induction fan: The fan will stoke the fire and turn your wood pellet smoker into something similar to a traditional convection oven.



Resistance temperature detector (RTD): This device will measure the temperature in your wood pellet grill and smoker. RTDs are more accurate than the previously used thermocouples, but they’re more fragile, and you should be careful when moving your grill.



Heat deflector: This part of your wood pellet grill and smoker provides a barrier between the food and flames. The heat deflector is a plate that is designed to fit over the fire pot

and prevent charring and burning by redirecting the heat. It turns your grill into a wood-fired convection oven. ❖

Flame zone pan: If you want to grill at high temperatures without a barrier in between the flame and food, you’ll use this component in conjunction with searing grates and griddle accessories.



Grease bucket: The grease bucket will catch any fat or liquid and stop it from falling into the flames. How much grease it collects depends on if you trimmed the fat from the meat you’re cooking. I recommend you line your grease bucket with foil to make the clean-up less of a hassle.

Advantages of Pellet Grills ❖

Pellet grills are versatile. You can barbecue, smoke, roast, grill (sort of—more on that below), and even bake or braise in a pellet grill. At BBQ University, we have used them to cook everything from crisp chicken wings to braised short ribs to smoked pork chile verde and crème brulee.



Like gas grills, pellet grills preheat fast (10 to 15 minutes). The design discourages flare-ups.



Some pellets grills allow you to regulate temperatures in 5degree increments, giving you pinpoint heat control. A thermostat in the cooking chamber sends precise signals to the controller and regulates pellet delivery.



Because a pellet grill works like a convection oven, you can

load up the cook chamber without fear of uneven cooking. ❖

You don’t normally over-smoke food on a pellet grill. The smoke flavour is more subtle than the sometimes acrid smoke generated by a straight wood or charcoal fire. The grills are available in a number of sizes from small to large, as well as commercial-size units that can accommodate a whole hog or pulled pork for a crowd. For additional wood smoke flavor, you can position hardwood chunks or pouches of soaked wood chips directly on the heat diffuser plate.



Pellets come in a variety of flavors—hickory, pecan, alder, mesquite, cherry, apple, maple, bourbon, etc., and can be mixed or changed in minutes. One 20-pound (227 g) bag is sufficient for several cooks, though usage will depend on the temperature setting and weather conditions (wind and cold will increase pellet consumption). Under normal circumstances, a pellet grill will use about ½ pound (227 g) of pellets per hour on the smoke setting and 2-½ (1.1 kg) pounds on high.



Some companies offer cold smokers as an accessory—perfect for Nova Scotia-style salmon or cheese.

How to Start a Pit Boss Wood Pellet Grill? There are some steps that you can take to start the Pit Boss Pellet Grill so that it grills the steak to perfection. If you follow the guidelines below, you will have a delicious meal whose taste you will remember all week long.

1. Fill the Grill Up with Fuel The step that you need to take is to make sure that you doublecheck whether you have more than enough pellets in the Pit Boss Pellet Grill. If the pellets are too less, it will mess up the temperature of the grill. This will result in a subpar steak at best. A good rule of thumb to follow is to have at least 2 lbs. of pellets on hand for every hour of smoking for a slow and low cook. If you want to grill hot and fast, you will have to stock up on 4 lbs. of pellets. There are different types of pellets that will give your steak different tastes. It all depends on what you want as the end result. Some of the most popular types of pellets include Hardwood, Black Cherry, and Hickory wood pellets. 2. Set the Grill on Smoke Once you have made sure that you are fueled up, it is now time to set the grill on the ‘smoke’ option. This is a very important step on the way to getting the perfect steak because the grill will begin to feed the pellets for around 3 ½ to 4 minutes. It will then stop so that you have the chance to light up the grill before feeding the grill with more fuel. However, if you turn up the grill and set it to around 400°F(204°C), the grill will fill up the Pit Boss Pellet Grill until it reaches the temperature you have set. You will have to make sure that there isn’t too much fuel over the igniter or else the grill will begin to muffle. This will probably result in it never lighting up and you having to clean it out before you can use it again. If you don’t clear out the pellets that have piled up on the

hopper, they will eventually begin to spill all over the place. 3. Start to Prep the Food Pit Boss Pellet Grills are known to light up fairly quickly. You will have around 3 minutes to turn the grill on from the time you have it up. This is why it important to have all your meat seasoned and prepared for the grill beforehand. If you take too long, it will also impact the cooking time. 4. Watch Out for the Smoke You need to look out for the thick smoky clouds coming out of the grill. This will let you know if the grill is on the right track or not. If you see thick clouds of smoke, it means that your pot has caught on fire and your pellets have begun to burn up. The smoke is often robust and full, so there is no need to be alarmed if you notice the thick smoke. The smoke tends to billow out of the grill for around 3-4 minutes before dissipating. Once the smoke has dissipated, you can start the grilling process. 5. Time to Start Grilling Once the pot catches, you will hear the unmistakable sizzle and crackle from the fire. The roaring sound of the fire is the result of the fan blowing on the fire inside the grill. Now, it is time to crank up the temperature to a suitable heat and get started with the grilling process. Within 5-6 minutes, the heat will climb up to the temperature you want, and you can slap the steak right on there for the best meal of your life.

Best Pit Boss Pellet Grills (FAQs) 1. Why should I buy Pit Boss Pellet Grill? Pit boss is a company that is oriented at designing the best grilling and smoking units that can solve all your cooking and grilling problems. Many customers have trusted them in producing high-quality pellet grills that are more effective, efficient and convenient to use. 2. Why are Pit Boss Pellet Grills different from others? Pit Boss Pellet grills have copper-finished lids, and some models come with auxiliaries like a flame boiler and bottle opener. These pellet grills use natural hardwood pellets and come with an on board digital control and monitoring with a LED readout. Their meat probe and digital temp control features make them stand out among on most of the competition. 3. How does the pellet electric ignition work? Pellet auger picks up the wood pellets from the grill hopper and takes them to the fire pot. The electronic ignition heats the pellets and starts the grill fire. 4. What can I cook on my pit boss pellet grill? With a pit boss grill, you can cook a pizza, sear a steak, smoke a brisket, or even bake chocolate chip cookies. Their large cooking area and full precise temperature control allow this to happen.

Cooking Tips and Tricks Before we get to the importance of quality meat and seasoning, let’s look at the recommended minimum internal temperatures. It is safest to cook all foods to these temperatures as measured before removing the meat from the heat source — use a digital food thermometer. That being said, there is nothing wrong with cooking food at a higher temperature. It’s all about personal preference. ❖

Beef, pork, lamb, and veal steaks, chops, and roasts should be cooked at 145 degrees Fahrenheit(63°C). Meat should rest at least three minutes.



Poultry, it doesn’t matter what cut, should be cooked at 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74°C).



Fish and shellfish should be cooked at 145 degrees Fahrenheit.

Now that you know what temperature you should aim for, another vital aspect to consider when it comes to cooking on a wood pellet grill and smoker is the quality of the meat and the seasoning. I recommend checking out a few local butcher shops and selecting the one with the best quality. If your meat is of a high standard, your job is halfway done. Secondly, seasoning is important. You don’t want it to overpower the meat, but it should instead interact with the natural flavors of the food you’re cooking. The right spice can push the “wow factor” of your cooking off the charts. I like to use a trusty

old all-purpose seasoning, but nothing is stopping you from mixing your own combination of spices and flavors. Just make sure you end up with seasoning that works well with the wood pellet grill and smoker — low-and-slow cooking and smoking. Experiment to find a real crowd-pleaser.

Cut any larger potatoes in half or quarters; leave small ones whole. The idea is for all the pieces to be bite size, about 1 inch across. Arrange the potatoes in a single layer in an aluminum foil pan. Stir in the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Set up your smoker following the manufacturer’s instructions and preheat to 275ºF (135ºC). Add wood as specified by the manufacturer. Place the potatoes in the smoker and smoke until tender (a bamboo skewer will pierce the spuds easily), 1 to 1½ hours, or as needed. Stir a couple of times so the potatoes brown evenly. Remove the potatoes and let cool slightly (they should be warm). While the potatoes smoke, make the dressing: Combine the mayonnaise,

mustard, and vinegar in a large bowl and whisk to mix. 6. Whisk in the chopped eggs, dill, scallions, olives, pickles, and capers. Cover and refrigerate until the potatoes are ready. 7. Stir the warm potatoes into the dressing. Correct the seasoning, adding salt, pepper, and vinegar to taste; the salad should be highly seasoned. 8.

Set up your smoker following the manufacturer’s instructions and preheat to 400ºF (204ºC). Add enough wood for 1 hour of smoking as specified by the manufacturer. Scrub the potatoes on all sides with a vegetable brush. Rinse well under cold running water and blot dry with paper towels. Prick each potato several times with a fork (this keeps the spud from exploding and facilitates the smoke absorption). Brush or rub the potato on all sides with the bacon fat and season generously with salt and pepper. Place the potatoes on the smoker rack. Smoke until the skins are crisp and the potatoes are tender in the center (they’ll be easy to pierce with a slender metal skewer), about 1 hour. Meanwhile, place the bacon in a cold skillet and fry over medium heat until browned and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain off the bacon fat (save the fat for future potatoes).

7.

Transfer the potatoes to a cutting board and let cool slightly. Cut each potato in half lengthwise. Using a spoon, scrape out most of the potato flesh, leaving a ¼-inch-thick shell. (It’s easier to scoop the potatoes when warm.) Cut the potato flesh into ½-inch dice and place in a bowl. 8. Add the bacon, 4 tablespoons of the butter, the scallions, and cheese to the potato flesh and gently stir to mix. 9. Stir in the sour cream and salt and pepper to taste; the mixture should be highly seasoned. Stir as little and as gently as possible so as to leave some texture to the potatoes. 10. Spoon the potato mixture back into the potato shells, mounding it in the center. Top each potato half with a thin slice of the remaining butter and sprinkle with paprika. 11. The potatoes can be prepared up to 24 hours ahead to this stage, covered, and refrigerated. 12. Just before serving, preheat your smoker to 400ºF (204ºC). Add enough wood for 30 minutes of smoking. Place the potatoes in a shallow Aluminum foil pan and re-smoke them until browned and bubbling, 15 to 20 minutes. Or you can heat them in a 400ºF (204ºC) oven.

Using a sharp paring knife and starting at the top (opposite the root), cut an inverted cone-shaped cavity about 2 inches across the top and 2 inches deep in each onion. (The core should come out in a cone-shaped plug.) Chop the pieces you remove. Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a medium-size skillet. Add the chopped onion, bacon, and jalapeños and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 4 minutes. Place a spoonful of the filling in the cavity of each onion.

Set up your grill for indirect grilling and preheat to medium 350ºF (177ºC). Arrange the brioche chunks in a single layer in a large aluminum foil pan. Place the pan on the grill grate away from the heat and cover the grill. For even more smoke flavor, add wood chunks or handfuls of wood chips to the coals. Indirect-grill the brioche, stirring occasionally so the cubes brown evenly, until toasted and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Set the pan of brioche aside to cool. Meanwhile, trim the ends off the mushroom stems; remove and discard the stems if using shiitakes. Wipe the mushrooms clean with a damp paper towel. Cut large mushrooms into ¼-inch slices; leave small ones whole. Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet on the stove

2. 3. 4.

5. 6. 7. 8.

Set up your smoker following the manufacturer’s instructions and preheat to 350ºF (177ºC). (Yes, I know this is hotter than the conventional low and slow method—it gives you crisper bacon.) Add the wood as specified by the manufacturer. Cut each jalapeño in half lengthwise, cutting through the stem and leaving it in place. Scrape out the seeds and veins; a grapefruit spoon or melon baller works well for this. Arrange the jalapeño halves on a wire rack, cut side up. Place the cream cheese in a mixing bowl.

Spoon a heaping tablespoon of crab mixture into each jalapeño half, mounding it toward the center. Sprinkle with paprika.

4. 5. 6.

7.

Set up your smoker following the manufacturer’s instructions and preheat it as low as it will go (200ºF (93ºC) or below). Spread out the flours and salt in a thin layer (not more than ¼ inch thick) in an aluminum foil pan or on a rimmed baking sheet. Place the water in another foil pan. Place the pans in the smoker and smoke until the white flour is lightly browned on the surface and tastes smoky and the water tastes smoky. Total smoking time is 15 to 20 minutes for hot-smoking or 1 to 1½ hours for cold-smoking. Let the flours cool to room temperature. The water should only cool to warm 105ºF (41ºC). Place the smoked flours, smoked salt, and yeast in a food processor and process to mix. Add the honey, olive oil, and the smoked warm water. Process in short bursts to obtain a soft, pliable dough. If the dough is too stiff, add a little more warm tap water; if too soft, add a little more flour. Alternatively, you can mix and knead the dough by hand or in a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured cutting board and knead by hand into a smooth ball.

8.

Place the dough in a large lightly oiled bowl, turning it to oil both sides. Cover with plastic wrap and let the dough rise in a warm spot until doubled in bulk, 1 to 1½ hours. 9. Punch down the dough, knead it into an oblong shape, and place it in an oiled loaf pan. Cover with plastic wrap. Let the dough rise again until doubled in bulk, 30 minutes to 1 hour. 10. Meanwhile, set up a grill for indirect grilling and preheat to 400ºF (204ºC) or preheat your oven to 400ºF (204ºC). If your smoker goes up to 400ºF (204ºC), you can bake the bread in it. No need to add wood—you’ve already smoked the flour. 11. Brush the top of the loaf with a little more olive oil and sprinkle with a little salt. 12. Bake the loaf until the top is browned and firm and the bottom sounds hollow when tapped, 30 to 40 minutes. Transfer the loaf pan to a wire rack and let cool for 10 minutes. 13. Remove the bread from the pan, cool for 10 minutes more, slice crosswise and serve warm. Serve with the smoked butter and smoked honey.

Arrange the tomatoes, cucumber, peppers, and onion, cut side up, in an aluminum foil pan. Add the garlic. Set up your smoker for cold-smoking, following the manufacturer’s instructions. Add the wood as specified by the manufacturer. Place the vegetables in the smoker. Smoke until bronzed with smoke (dip your finger in one cut tomato—the juices should taste smoky), 1 hour, or as needed. The vegetables should remain raw. Cut the vegetables into 1-inch pieces, reserving the juices. Place in a food processor and process to a coarse or smooth puree (your choice). Gradually add the reserved juices, oil, vinegar, and enough water (about ½ cup) to make a pourable soup. Work in salt and pepper to taste, plus a few more drops of vinegar if needed to balance the sweetness of the vegetables. Alternatively, place the vegetables and their juices, oil, vinegar, and water in a blender and blend to your preferred consistency. Season with salt, pepper, and more vinegar. The gazpacho can be made several hours ahead to this stage, covered, and refrigerated, but taste and re-season it before serving.

Trim any green or bloody spots off the livers. Make the brine: Place the hot water, salt, peppercorns, and thyme in a deep bowl and whisk until the salt dissolves. Whisk in the ice water and wine. When the mixture is cold, stir in the chicken livers. Brine, covered, in the refrigerator for 3 hours. Drain the livers in a colander and blot dry with paper towels. Oil a wire rack and arrange the livers on it. Let dry in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Lightly brush the livers with olive oil on both sides. Meanwhile, set up your smoker following the manufacturer’s instructions and preheat to 300ºF (149ºC). Add the wood as specified by the manufacturer. Place the rack in the smoker and smoke the livers until cooked to taste, 30 to 40 minutes for pink in the center. (Make a slit in one of the livers to check for doneness.) Do not overcook. You can serve the livers hot from the smoker. To add a little crunch to the exterior, melt the butter in a large skillet over high heat. Pan-fry the

livers until seared and crusty, 1 to 2 minutes per side.

Chicken Tortilla Chips Prep time: 10 minutes | Cook time: 15 minutes | Serves 6 to 8 8 cups tortilla chips 2 cups shredded smoked brisket or chicken 1 can (15 ounces / 425 g) black beans (preferably organic and low-sodium), drained well in a colander, rinsed, and drained again 12 ounces (340 g) finely grated mixed cheeses (like Cheddar, smoked Cheddar, Jack, and/or pepper Jack; about 3 cups) 4 fresh jalapeño peppers, stemmed and thinly sliced crosswise, or ¹⁄₃ cup drained pickled jalapeño slices 4 scallions, trimmed, white and green parts thinly sliced crosswise 2 to 4 tablespoons of your favorite hot sauce (I like Cholula) or barbecue sauce ¼ cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro (optional) 1.

Set up your smoker following the manufacturer’s instructions and preheat to 275ºF (135ºC). Add the wood as specified by the manufacturer. Loosely arrange one third of the tortilla chips in the grill skillet. Sprinkle one third of the shredded brisket, beans, cheese, jalapeños, and scallions on top. Shake on hot sauce. Add a second layer of these ingredients, followed by a third. Place the skillet with the nachos in your smoker and smoke until the cheese is melted and bubbling, 12 to 15 minutes. Sprinkle the cilantro on top, if using, and dig in. Yes—you eat the nachos right out of the skillet, so be careful not to burn your fingers on the rim. Smoked Nachos on the Grill Set up the grill for indirect grilling and preheat to medium-high 400ºF (204ºC). Place the nachos pan on the grate away from the heat and toss

the wood chips on the coals. Indirect-grill until the cheese is melted and bubbling, 5 minutes.

Coriander Spiced Chicken Wings Prep time: 15 minutes | Cook time: ½ to 2 hours | Serves 4 to 6 3 pounds (1.4 kg) chicken wings (about 24 pieces) ½ cup finely chopped fresh cilantro 2 teaspoons coarse salt (sea or kosher) 2 teaspoons cracked black peppercorns 2 teaspoons ground coriander (optional) 2 tablespoons Asian (dark) sesame oil Vegetable oil, for oiling the rack 6 tablespoons (¾ stick) butter 4 jalapeño peppers, thinly sliced crosswise (leave the seeds in) 6 tablespoons sriracha (or other favorite hot sauce) ¼ cup chopped dry-roasted peanuts 1. 2. 3.

Place the chicken wings in a large bowl. Sprinkle in ¼ cup of the cilantro, the salt, pepper, and coriander, if using, and stir to mix. Stir in the sesame oil. Cover the bowl and marinate, refrigerated, for 15 to 60 minutes (the longer they marinate, the richer the flavor). Meanwhile, set up your smoker following the manufacturer’s instructions and preheat to 375ºF (191ºC). (If your smoker’s incapable of reaching that temperature, preheat as hot as the smoker will go.) Add the wood as specified by the manufacturer. Oil the smoker rack and arrange the drumettes on it. Smoke the wings until sizzling, brown with smoke, and cooked through, 30 to 50 minutes at lower temperatures, for example, at 250ºF (121ºC), you’ll need 1½ to 2 hours. In some smokers, the pieces closest to the fire will cook faster; if this is the case, rotate the pieces so all cook evenly. To check for doneness, make a tiny cut in the thickest part of a few of the wings. The meat at the bone should be white, with no traces of red. Do not overcook. Arrange the wings on a heatproof platter.

6.

Just before serving, melt the butter in a cast-iron skillet on the stove over high heat. Add the jalapeños and cook until they sizzle and start to brown, 3 minutes. Stir in the sriracha and bring to a boil. Pour over the chicken. 7. Sprinkle the chicken with the peanuts and the remaining ¼ cup cilantro and serve at once with plenty of napkins.

Citrusy Tomato Corn Bowl Prep time: 10 minutes | Cook time: 20 minutes | Serves 6 to 8 4 luscious ripe red tomatoes (about 2 pounds / 907 g), cut in half widthwise 4 jalapeño peppers, stemmed and cut in half lengthwise (seeded for a milder salsa; seeds left in for hotter) 2 ears sweet corn, shucked 1 small sweet onion, peeled and quartered ½ cup chopped fresh cilantro ¼ cup fresh lime juice (2 to 3 limes), or to taste Coarse salt (sea or kosher) to taste Tortilla chips, for serving 1.

5. 6.

Set up your smoker following the manufacturer’s instructions and preheat to 225ºF (107ºC). Add the wood as specified by the manufacturer. Place the tomatoes and jalapeños (both cut side up), corn, and onion in the smoker. Smoke the vegetables long enough to impart a smoke flavor (but not so long that you cook them), 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to a platter and let cool to room temperature. Lay the corn flat on a cutting board and slice the kernels off the cob using broad strokes of a chef’s knife. Transfer the corn kernels to a large bowl. Coarsely chop the tomatoes, jalapeños, and onion by hand or in a food processor. Add to the corn and stir in the cilantro, lime juice, and salt to taste. The salsa should be highly seasoned. Transfer the salsa to a serving bowl. Serve with chips alongside.

Grilled Brie cheese with Baguette slices Prep time: 5 minutes | Cook time: 10 minutes | Serves 4 1 Camembert or small Brie cheese (8 ounces / 227 g) 3 tablespoons pepper jelly, tomato jam, or apricot jam 1 large jalapeño pepper, stemmed and thinly sliced crosswise Grilled or toasted baguette slices or favorite crackers, for serving 1. 2.

Set up your grill for smoke-roasting and preheat to medium-high 400ºF (204ºC). If you’re charring the plank (this step is optional, but it gives you a lot more flavor), place it directly over the fire and grill until singed on both sides, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Set aside and let cool. Place the cheese in the center of the plank. Spread the top with pepper jelly using the back of a spoon. Shingle the jalapeño slices on top so they overlap in a decorative pattern. Place the plank on the grill away from the heat and toss the wood chips or chunks on the coals. Smoke-roast the cheese until the sides are soft and beginning to bulge, 6 to 10 minutes. Serve the cheese on the plank, hot off the grill, with a basket of grilled baguette slices or your favorite crackers.

Olive Drizzled Smoked Cheese Prep time: 5 minutes | Cook time: 2 to 4 minutes | Serves 2 to 3 Vegetable oil, for oiling the grate 1 ball (8 to 12 ounces / 227 to 340 g) fresh Mozzarella, patted dry Extra virgin olive oil (optional) Coarse salt (sea or kosher) or fleur de sel, to taste (optional) 1.

Place a small mound of charcoal in the smoker firebox or to one side of a kettle grill and light it. Brush and oil the grate. When the coals glow red, place the cheese in the smoke chamber (or on the side of the kettle grill opposite the embers), as far away as possible from the fire. 2. Toss the hay on the coals and close the smoker or cover the grill. Smoke the cheese until it’s colored with smoke (but not long enough to melt it), 2 to 4 minutes. 3. Slide a spatula under the cheese and transfer it to a plate to cool. Do not grab it when hot or the deposit of smoke will come off on your fingers. 4. Serve once it has cooled to room temperature, or refrigerate until serving. (For maximum flavor, let the cheese warm to room temperature before serving.) Drizzle with olive oil and/or salt, if desired, and serve.

Cayenne Pepper spiced Bacon Pig Skewers Prep time: 10 minutes | Cook time: 30 minutes | Serves 24 Nonstick cooking spray, oil, or butter, for greasing 2 pounds (907 g) thick-cut bacon (24 slices) 24 metal skewers 1 cup packed light brown sugar 2 to 3 teaspoons cayenne pepper ½ cup maple syrup, divided 1.

Supply your smoker with wood pellets and follow the manufacturer’s specific start-up procedure. Preheat, with the lid closed, to 350ºF (177ºC). 2. Coat a disposable aluminum foil baking sheet with cooking spray, oil, or butter. 3. Thread each bacon slice onto a metal skewer and place on the prepared baking sheet. 4. In a medium bowl, stir together the brown sugar and cayenne. 5. Baste the top sides of the bacon with ¼ cup of maple syrup. 6. Sprinkle half of the brown sugar mixture over the bacon. 7. Place the baking sheet on the grill, close the lid, and smoke for 15 to 30 minutes. 8. Using tongs, flip the bacon skewers. Baste with the remaining ¼ cup of maple syrup and top with the remaining brown sugar mixture. 9. Continue smoking with the lid closed for 10 to 15 minutes, or until crispy. You can eyeball the bacon and smoke to your desired doneness, but the actual ideal internal temperature for bacon is 155ºF (68ºC) (if you want to try to get a thermometer into it—ha!). 10. Using tongs, carefully remove the bacon skewers from the grill. Let cool completely before handling.

Creamy Sausage Muffins Prep time: 5 minutes | Cook time: 30 minutes | Serves 4 to 5 1 pound (454 g) ground hot sausage, uncooked 8 ounces (227 g) cream cheese, softened 1 package mini filo dough shells 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

6.

Supply your smoker with wood pellets and follow the manufacturer’s specific start-up procedure. Preheat, with the lid closed, to 350ºF (177ºC). In a large bowl, using your hands, thoroughly mix together the sausage and cream cheese until well blended. Place the filo dough shells on a rimmed perforated pizza pan or into a mini muffin tin. Roll the sausage and cheese mixture into 1-inch balls and place into the filo shells. Place the pizza pan or mini muffin tin on the grill, close the lid, and smoke the sausage balls for 30 minutes, or until cooked through and the sausage is no longer pink. Plate and serve warm.

Mayo Scallion and Crab Cakes Prep time: 15 minutes | Cook time: 10 minutes | Makes 30 mini crab cakes Nonstick cooking spray, oil, or butter, for greasing 1 cup panko bread crumbs, divided 1 cup canned corn, drained ½ cup chopped scallions, divided ½ red bell pepper, finely chopped 16 ounces (454 g) jumbo lump crab meat ¾ cup mayonnaise, divided 1 egg, beaten 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 2 teaspoons cayenne pepper, divided Juice of 1 lemon 1. 2.

4. 5. 6.

Supply your smoker with wood pellets and follow the manufacturer’s specific start-up procedure. Preheat, with the lid closed, to 425ºF (218ºC). Spray three 12-cup mini muffin pans with cooking spray and divide ½ cup of the panko between 30 of the muffin cups, pressing into the bottoms and up the sides. (Work in batches, if necessary, depending on the number of pans you have.) In a medium bowl, combine the corn, ¼ cup of scallions, the bell pepper, crab meat, half of the mayonnaise, the egg, salt, pepper, and 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Gently fold in the remaining ½ cup of bread crumbs and divide the mixture between the prepared mini muffin cups. Place the pans on the grill grate, close the lid, and smoke for 10 minutes, or until golden brown. In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice and the remaining mayonnaise,

scallions, and cayenne pepper to make a sauce. 7. Brush the tops of the mini crab cakes with the sauce and serve hot.

Chapter 6: Desserts Vanilla Flavoured Marshmallow Apples Prep time: 15 minutes | Cook time: 1 to 1½ hours | Serves 6 6 firm, sweet apples like Honey crisps or Fuji 6 tablespoons (¾ stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature ¼ cup firmly packed dark brown sugar ¼ cup dried currants ¼ cup gingersnap crumbs, graham cracker crumbs, or ground almonds ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon ¼ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 6 cinnamon sticks (each 2 to 3 inches long) 3 large marshmallows, halved horizontally (optional) Regular vanilla ice cream, for serving (optional) 1.

Set up your smoker following the manufacturer’s directions and preheat to 275ºF (135ºC). 2. Core the apples, but don’t cut all the way through the bottom; the idea is to create a cavity for stuffing. 3. Beat the butter and brown sugar in a medium-size bowl until fluffy. Beat in the currants, cookie crumbs, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla. Divide the filling evenly among the apples. Stick a cinnamon stick upright through the filling of each apple and place a marshmallow half on top, if using. 4. Arrange the apples on grill rings on the smoker rack or balance them directly on the smoker rack. Smoke the apples until the sides are soft, but not collapsing, 1 to 1½ hours. If the marshmallows start to brown too much, loosely tent the apples with aluminum foil. Serve the smoked

apples hot with ice cream on the side, if desired.

Vanilla Flavored Cheesecake Prep time: 15 minutes | Cook time: 1½ to 2 hours | Serves 8 to 10 The Crust: Vegetable oil, for oiling the pan 12 ounces (340 g) gingersnaps (about 36) or chocolate icebox cookies (about 36) 3 tablespoons light brown sugar 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted The Filling: 4 packages (8 ounces / 227 g each) cream cheese, at room temperature 1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract 2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice 2 tablespoons (¼ stick) unsalted butter, melted 5 large eggs Burnt sugar sauce (optional) 1.

Set up your grill for indirect grilling and preheat to medium-high 400ºF (204ºC). Or preheat your oven to 400ºF (204ºC). Lightly oil the spring form pan with vegetable oil and wrap a sheet of aluminum foil around the outside. 2. Break the cookies into pieces and grind with the brown sugar to a fine powder in a food processor. You’ll want about 1¾ cups of crumbs. Add the melted butter and run the processor in short bursts to obtain a crumbly dough. 3. Press the mixture evenly across the bottom and halfway up the sides of the springform pan. Indirect-grill or bake the crust until lightly browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let cool. 4. Wipe out the food processor bowl. Add the cream cheese, brown sugar,

vanilla, lemon zest, lemon juice, and butter, and process until smooth. Work in the eggs one by one, processing until smooth after each addition. 5. Pour the filling into the crust. Gently tap the pan on the countertop a few times to knock out any air bubbles. 6. Set up your smoker following the manufacturer’s instructions and preheat to 225ºF (107ºC) to 250ºF (121ºC). Add the wood as specified by the manufacturer. 7. Place the cheesecake in the smoker. Smoke until the top is bronzed with smoke and the filling is set, 1½ to 2 hours. 8. To test for doneness, gently poke the side of the pan—the filling will jiggle, not ripple. Alternatively, insert a slender metal skewer in the center of the cake; it should come out clean. 9. Transfer the cheesecake in its pan to a wire rack to cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until serving; the cheesecake can be made up to 8 hours ahead. 10. Run a slender knife around the inside of the springform pan. Unclasp and remove the ring. (You’ll serve the cheesecake off the bottom of the pan.) Let the cheesecake warm slightly at room temperature before serving. 11. If serving with the sauce, pour some of it over the cheesecake and the rest into a pitcher. Cut into wedges and pass the remaining sauce.

Smoked Honey Crisp with Bacon Prep time: 15 minutes | Cook time: ¾ to 1 hour | Serves 8 The Filling: 2 strips artisanal bacon, like Nueske’s or the Made-from-Scratch Bacon here, cut crosswise into ¼-inch slivers 3 pounds (1.4 kg) crisp, sweet apples like Honeycrisps or Galas ¹⁄₃ cup packed light or dark brown sugar, or to taste 1½ tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon Pinch of salt 3 tablespoons bourbon The Topping: 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into ½-inch pieces and placed in the freezer until icy cold ½ cup crushed gingersnap cookies or granola ½ cup all-purpose flour ½ cup granulated sugar ½ cup light or dark brown sugar Pinch of salt Regular vanilla ice cream, for serving (optional) 1. 2.

Set up your grill for indirect grilling and preheat to 400ºF (204ºC). Fry the bacon in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat, stirring with a slotted spoon, until crisp and golden brown, 4 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a large bowl. 3. Pour off and reserve the bacon fat for another use. Don’t wipe out or wash the skillet. 4. Peel and core the apples and cut them into 1-inch pieces. Add them to the bacon. Stir in the sugar, flour, lemon zest, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in the

bourbon. 5. Taste the mixture for sweetness, adding sugar as needed. Spoon the filling into the skillet. 6. Place the butter, cookie crumbs, flour, white and brown sugars, and salt in a food processor. 7. Grind to a coarse mixture, running the processor in short bursts. Don’t overprocess; the mixture should remain loose and crumbly like sand. Sprinkle the topping over the apples. 8. Place the crisp on the grill or smoker rack away from the heat. Add the wood to the coals and cover the grill. 9. Smoke-roast the crisp until the topping is browned and bubbling, the apples are soft (they should be easy to pierce with a skewer), and the filling is thick, 45 minutes to 1 hour. 10. Serve the crisp hot off the grill or smoker. Extra points for topping it with Smoked Ice Cream.

Chocolate Pudding with Smoked Ice Cream Prep time: 15 minutes | Cook time: 60 minutes | Serves 8 1 loaf (1 pound / 454 g) brioche, cut into 1-inch cubes (about 8 cups) 3 cups heavy (whipping) cream 2 cups whole milk 1½ cups sugar Pinch of salt 1 vanilla bean 8 ounces (227 g) bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped 4 large eggs 2 large egg yolks 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (1½ teaspoons if not using the vanilla bean) Butter, for buttering the skillet Smoked ice cream, for serving (optional) 1.

2. 3. 4.

5. 6.

Set up your smoker following the manufacturer’s instructions and preheat to 225ºF (107ºC) to 250ºF (121ºC). Add the wood as specified by the manufacturer. Arrange the brioche cubes in a single layer in an aluminum foil pan and place in the smoker. Smoke, stirring occasionally so the cubes smoke evenly, until firm and toasted, 30 to 45 minutes. Meanwhile, make the custard: Place the cream, milk, sugar, and salt in a heavy saucepan. Cut the vanilla bean, if using, in half lengthwise, and scrape the tiny black seeds into the cream. Then, add the vanilla bean halves. Bring to a boil over medium heat, whisking until the sugar dissolves. Remove the pan from the heat. Remove the vanilla bean halves; you can rinse, dry, and reuse them. Whisk in half of the chocolate until melted. (Return the pan to low heat if the chocolate needs help melting.)

7.

Place the eggs, egg yolks, and vanilla extract, if using, in a large heatproof bowl and whisk until smooth. Gradually whisk in the hot cream mixture. 8. Add it little by little so as not to curdle the eggs. Add the smoked bread cubes and fold until the bread has absorbed most of the custard. 9. Butter the skillet and spoon in the pudding mixture. Sprinkle with the remaining chopped chocolate, pushing the pieces into the bread pudding with a fork. 10. Increase the heat of your smoker to 325ºF (163ºC). Some smokers won’t go that high; if not, increase the heat to 275ºF (135ºC). 11. Smoke the bread pudding until puffed and browned on top and the custard is set, 40 to 60 minutes at the higher temperature, 1 to 1½ hours at the lower temperature. (Insert a metal skewer into the center of the pudding —it should come out clean when the custard is set.) 12. Serve the bread pudding hot (with Smoked Ice Cream, if desired).

Caramelized Egg Bake Prep time: 10 minutes | Cook time: 1 to 1¼ hours | Serves 6 The Caramel: 1 cup sugar ¼ cup water The Flan: ½ cup sugar 3 large eggs 2 large egg yolks Pinch of salt 1¼ cups whole milk 1 cup half-and-half 1 regular or smoked vanilla bean, split, or 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 1. 2.

5. 6. 7.

Place the sugar and water in a heavy saucepan. Cover the pan and cook over high heat for 2 minutes. Uncover the pan and reduce the heat to medium. Swirl the pan so the sugar browns evenly, but don’t stir, and watch it carefully so it doesn’t burn or become bitter. (If it does, you’ll need to start over.) Cook until the syrup is dark golden brown and caramelized, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat immediately. Take care not to get any molten sugar on your hands. Carefully pour the caramel into the ramekins, rotating each to coat the bottom and sides with it. (Wear grill gloves if necessary to protect your hands and arms.) Breathe a sigh of relief; the hard part is over. Let the caramel cool until hard. Arrange the ramekins on a rimmed baking sheet. Place the sugar, whole eggs, yolks, and salt in a large heatproof bowl, and whisk just to mix. Combine the milk, half-and-half, and vanilla bean, if using, in a heavy

saucepan and heat over medium heat until very hot but not boiling. 8. Slowly whisk the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture, ½ cup at a time. 9. Strain into a large heatproof glass measuring cup, discarding the vanilla bean. (Or you can rinse it off, dry it, and reuse it another time). If using vanilla extract, whisk it in now. Let the custard cool slightly, then pour it into the caramel-coated ramekins. 10. Set up your smoker following the manufacturer’s instructions and preheat to 225ºF (107ºC) to 250ºF (121ºC). Add the wood as specified by the manufacturer. 11. Place the baking sheet with the ramekins in the smoker and smoke until the custard is set, 1 to 1¼ hours. To test for doneness, poke one of the ramekins. 12. When the flan jiggles (not ripples), it’s cooked. The internal temperature measured on an instant-read thermometer should be 180ºF (82ºC). 13. Transfer the flans to a wire rack to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or as long as overnight before serving. 14. To unmold, run the tip of a paring knife around the inside edge of each flan. Place a plate firmly over the ramekin, invert, and shake until the flan slips loose. Spoon any caramel left in the ramekin around the flan.

Yummy Sweet Banana Bowl Prep time: 10 minutes | Cook time: 15 minutes | Serves 6 to 8 1½ cups sugar 1 (l4-ounce / 397-g) can sweetened evaporated milk 2 cups whole milk 4 eggs, separated (reserve egg whites for meringue, if using) 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour, sifted ½ (12-ounce / 340-g) box vanilla wafers (reserve a few for crumbled topping) 4 ripe bananas, thinly sliced 1 teaspoon cream of tartar (for meringue, if using) 1. 2. 3.

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar and both milks. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. Turn the heat to low. Add the egg yolks and flour to the pan. Stir until the mixture begins to thicken. Remove the pan from the heat and let the mixture cool. In a large, clear ovenproof bowl or other serving dish, layer half of the cooled custard, then half of the vanilla wafers, then half of the bananas. Repeat the layers. Top with crumbled vanilla wafers. The pudding may also be topped with a meringue, if desired. Set the dish aside. Preheat the oven to broil. Pour the reserved egg whites into a large mixing bowl. Using a handheld electric mixer beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar until stiff peaks form. Top the pudding with this meringue. Place the bowl on a lower rack under the broiler and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the meringue browns. Remove the pudding from the oven and enjoy.

Caramelized Apple Crunch Prep time: 10 minutes | Cook time: 40 to 45 minutes | Serves 6 4 cups peeled, cored, and sliced apples, preferably Granny Smith ¾ cup all-purpose flour 1 cup sugar 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon ½ teaspoon salt 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into pieces, at room temperature, plus extra for the baking dish Vanilla ice cream (optional) 1.

Preheat the oven to 350ºF (177ºC). Lightly butter a 9-inch square baking dish. Place the apple slices in the baking dish. 2. In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Pulse a couple of times to combine. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. 3. Sprinkle the crumb mixture over the apples. 4. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until the apples are tender. Serve warm, with ice cream, if you like.

When ready to cook, set grill temperature to 180 ℉ and preheat, lid closed for 15 minutes. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together lemon juice, sugar, eggs and yolks, cornstarch and fine sea salt. Pour into a sheet tray or cake pan and place on grill. Smoke for 30 minutes whisking mixture halfway through smoking. Remove from grill and set aside. Pour mixture into a small saucepan. Place on stove top set to medium heat until boiling. Once boiling, boil for 60 seconds. Remove from heat and strain through a mesh strainer into a bowl. Whisk in cold butter, olive oil, and lemon zest. To make a crust, pulse together the flour, granulated sugar, confectioners’ sugar, lemon zest and salt in a food processor. Add butter

and pulse until just mixed into a crumbly dough. 7. Press dough into a prepared 9” by 9” baking dish lined with parchment paper that is long enough to hang over 2 of the sides. 8. When ready to cook, set the grill to 350 ℉ and preheat, lid closed for 15 minutes. 9. Bake until crust is very lightly golden brown, about 30 to 35 minutes. 10. Remove from grill and pour the lemon filling over the crust. Return to grill and continue to bake until filling is just set about 15 to 20 minutes. 11. Allow to cool at room temperature, then refrigerate until chilled before slicing into bars. Sprinkle with confectioners’ sugar and flaky sea salt right before serving. Enjoy!

Chocolate Pie with Fudge Sauce Prep time: 15 minutes | Cook time: 1 hour | Serves 8 to 12 ½ cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips 1 cup butter 1 cup brown sugar 1 cup sugar 4 whole eggs 2 teaspoon vanilla extract 2 cups all-purpose flour ½ cup cocoa powder, unsweetened 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 1 cup Semisweet chocolate chips ¾ cup white chocolate chips ¾ cup nuts (optional) 1 (8 ounce / 227 g) whole Hot Fudge sauce, 2 tablespoon Guinness beer 1. 2. 3.

4.

5.

Coat the inside of a 10-inch (25 cm) pie plate with non-stick cooking spray. When ready to cook, set the grill temperature to 350ºF (177ºC) and preheat, lid closed for 15 minutes. Melt ½ cup (100 g) of the semi sweet chocolate chips in the microwave. Cream together butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar. Beat in the eggs, adding one at a time and mixing after each egg, and the vanilla. Add in the melted chocolate chips. On a large piece of wax paper, sift together the cocoa powder, flour, baking soda and salt. Lift up the corners of the paper and pour slowly into the butter mixture. Beat until the dry ingredients are just incorporated. Stir in the remaining

semi-sweet chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, and the nuts. Press the dough into the prepared pie pan. 6. Place the brownie pie on the grill and bake for 45-50 minutes or until the pie is set in the middle. Rotate the pan halfway through cooking. If the top or edges begin to brown, cover the top with a piece of aluminum foil. 7. In a microwave-safe measuring cup, heat the fudge sauce in the microwave. Stir in the Guinness. 8. Once the brownie pie is done, allow to sit for 20 minutes. Slice into wedges and top with the fudge sauce. Enjoy.

Grilled Sweet Cheddar Muffins Prep time: 10 minutes | Cook time: 12 to 15 minutes | Makes 3 dounceens mini muffins 1 package butter cake mix 1 package Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix 1 cup self-rising or cake flour 12 tablespoons (1½ sticks) unsalted butter, softened, plus 8 tablespoons (1 stick) melted 3½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese 2 eggs, beaten, at room temperature 2¼ cups buttermilk Nonstick cooking spray or butter, for greasing ¼ cup packed brown sugar 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

8.

Supply your smoker with wood pellets and follow the manufacturer’s specific start-up procedure. Preheat, with the lid closed, to 375ºF (191ºC). In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, corn muffin mix, and flour. Slice the 1½ sticks of softened butter into pieces and cut into the dry ingredients. Add the cheese and mix thoroughly. In a medium bowl, combine the eggs and buttermilk, and then add to the dry ingredients, stirring until well blended. Coat three 12-cup mini muffin pans with cooking spray and spoon ¼ cup of batter into each cup. Transfer the pans to the grill, close the lid, and smoke, monitoring closely, for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the muffins are lightly browned. While the muffins are cooking, make the topping: In a small bowl, stir together the remaining 1 stick of melted butter and the brown sugar until well combined. Remove the muffins from the grill. Brush the tops with the sweet butter and serve warm.

Bourbon Cake with Berry Topping Prep time: 10 minutes | Cook time: 20 minutes | Serves 6 Bourbon Whipped Cream: 1 cup (240 ml) heavy whipping cream 2 tablespoons (16 g) powdered sugar 2 tablespoons (30 ml) high-quality bourbon Berry Topping: 4 cups (1 kg) fresh or frounceen berries of choice (I like strawberries, blueberries and raspberries), chopped 3 tablespoons (38 g) granulated sugar 1 tablespoon (15 ml) lemon juice 1 pound (454 g) cake, cut into 6 slices 1. 2.

Prepare your grill to run on high. To make the whipped cream, pour the heavy whipping cream into a medium bowl and with a handheld mixer, whip until soft peaks form (or use an electric mixer). Gradually add in the powdered sugar, whipping until soft peaks form. Gently fold in the bourbon. Place the bowl in the refrigerator until ready to serve. To make the berry topping, in a small saucepan, combine the berries, granulated sugar and lemon juice. Place the pan on the smoker grates and let the mixture come to a boil. When the mixture is boiling, cook, stirring often and mashing with a wooden spoon to break down the berries, for about 10 minutes, until it has a syrup-like consistency. Remove the pot from the smoker. Place the slices of pound cake onto the smoker grates and grill for about 2 minutes per side until grill marks are visible. Carefully flip the cake and grill the other side. Remove the cake from the smoker and place on a plate. Layer with a few spoonful of the berry topping, followed by a generous dollop of whipped

cream. Serve immediately.
