I must admit I "borrowed" this recipe from Low&Slow over on the SMF forum, who "borrowed" it from someone else. Good recipes seem to get borrowed a lot. If you like to smoke, you can find some good tips over there.

I love to cook with smoke,
Do it quite a lot,

We generally have a West to east wind or breeze
Last year the wind changed And a neighbor doors to the west side called the Fire Dept.

In November we smoke salmon.
Nothing like sitting and watching your favorite football team play with a smoked salmon a couple beers and an afternoon to yourself.

Thanks for the info,
Thom

Found your recipe yesterday afternoon and made them last night. I had to make them in the oven (boooooo) as I lent (stupidly) the smoker I made to a friend and haven't seen it since!! They were still awesome! wife and daughter ate them up! Great use for the peppers My friend grew the biggest jalapenos I have ever seen they were going red so I raided his garden and got nearly half a 5 gallon pail of them. I dried most of them mixed with my peppers I grew jalapeno (girly in comparison to his) Habenero, hot Portugal, cayenne, hot cherry and I have one random plant that looks like those pepperoncini's you see in the jar.
The hab's are ridiculously hot the kid won't touch them but the wife and I enjoy showing each other up trying to eat the most of one roasted on the grill with a steak. Can't wait to get my smoker back to try these cooked properly.

This is a pic of the type of smoker I built with a few mods.
