How about cold smoking porto mushrooms?

[jonny smoker]

I have som baby portobella mushrooms that I would like to cold smoke, any suggestions?
Prep, wood and smoke time?

Thanks, KP

Never done it.I'd imagine you'd have to be careful not to over smoke since they're so porous.

It's in the smoke! decided to go with cherry for 3-4 hrs.

Well,I guess we'll see...

Finished! shrooms 4hrs. butter & cheese 3hrs. and salt & garlic 2hrs. all with cherry. I'll sauté some shrooms tonight to check for flavor then wait a few days to see if there is a difference.

Took a while to figure out how to get the pic to load!

Tried some of the shrooms tonight and they came good. Maybe a little strong, less time different wood for the next batch.
Getting some crab this week so probably stuff the rest.

MB 30" gasser with AMNPS 5x8, works great!

You don't lose a lot of smoke from crosswind?

Only one time there was a lot of wind and I just leaned some cardboard against the legs.
