Need help with a recipe

[richard cameron]

I bought a cast iron skillet to use in my offset smoker. I have since found out how few recipes there are available for food that is cooked at 250 degrees. I am firing up my smoker tomorrow to cook some ribs, and thought this would be a good time to use my skillet. Does anyone have any ideas on what I should cook? Thanks in advance for your help.

Beans in the pit are always good.

You could make a meatloaf in that pan if you wanted.

Never thought about a cast pan in the offset. Beans is all that comes to mind, but I'd keep it to the cooler end...

Thanks everyone for your suggestions.  When I told my wife what was suggested, she said “why not make some chili instead, we have all the ingredients.” So I am making some chili today.  I will post some pics when the chili is done.

The chili is done.  I made some chicken chili using some smoked chicken scraps that I had in the freezer.

Very nice!  Things like chili and beans when cooked in the smoker have a really unique taste that a lot of people will wonder about until you tell them how you cooked it.

Points for you!

Now that looks really good!!
I'm going to have to clean up the cast pan I used for wood chips in the gasser...
