I have never smoked an onion..... do tell more. Am I to assume do nothing special for pre-smoke prep and just smoke it?

Also, if I smoke up a few onions, how long will they keep in the fridge for future use?

Will have to try that, got asked by my dots tonite, "can you cook any thing on the stove thats not bbq sauce or tea" " every thing we eat comes of the smoker or grill", i really need to learn how to cook in the kitchen some time and the smoker won't fit where the stove is.

throw it on -when it's soft to the touch-more than the shell -about 3 hrs on300 & i soak in dark beer & evoo over night & a day... done. same w/garlic( the whole bulb)

 

[gypsyseagod]

3 hrs @ 225-250 same w/ a whole bulb or 2 of garlic- 250 or 225... soft to squeeze & "wilty". and asfer as "what to do on a stove" ... i was doing cooks long ,before, & besides, bbq. just name a meat or dish & i may have it or can find it...i ain't bragging. but i did restaurants & c ooking for a living & couldn't bbq everyday.... i do italian,mexican,southern,seafood(all kinds), thai... la ti da....

sorry- i smoke them 200-225 soaked w/ evoo,basil evoo or just spritz. theytake3-5 hrs...squeeze fer softness( 3 hrs @ 225- yellows) minimum
tjey last for a couple months w/ my smoked garlic in a ziploc for a couple months or until they're used- that usually comes first.
add that & the smoked garlic to seared brisket fat & smoked ham hocks & rotels to the pintos........
