Hey Folks!

I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how to smoke a habanero?

A temperature and time would be appreciated. I have looked through threads...no luck!

Going to smoke wings, ABT's, and habaneros (make some sauce) this weekend.

Cheers :P
 
What type of sauce?  When I smoke them I like to get them dry so I can turn it into powder.  In that case I will smoke at 230-250 for 6+ hours, with smoke. Then I sit them out in the sun to continue to dry (or I have also left them in my GOSM, without heat, for up to 24 hours to continue the drying process).
 
I smoke my Habs and Japs at 200* for 3 hours, 2 hours of that is smoke. They come out really tender.

Use a boat motor to get them incorporated into your sauce. Better control than a blender or proccessor

You can also do what I have done a couple of times now and make ABT's with a couple of those Hab's. The heat doesn't cook out like normal ABT's.
 
Biavian - I am making a Smoked Habanero Pepper Sauce...got the idea from a recent thread.

Nepas - I like the idea of 2-3 hours...goes along with the time for ABT's and Chicken Wings :)

Big Twig - I do like the heat, haha. Thanks for the tip ~ will have to try that out for sure!
