Post by: teesquare on March 13, 2013, 11:44:00 AM: Used the micro plane to shave 2 smoked/dehydrated Jalapeno's from last years crop.......

Dust these into some fresh cut cut up russet potatoes and diced sweet onion...add a little Jane's Crazy Salt...

Set the MAK for SMOKE...for about 1 hour and put on some of the chicken w/dried cranberries and pistachio sausage LOOK at that color from the smoke!!!! The flavor was just amazing too!

And...uh...in order to "reduce carbs" ;)...I let 2 sausages into the french bread. Hey - it was too big for one sausage. ;D

Post by: bbqchef on March 13, 2013, 03:24:12 PM: Very nice... I've got to give that a try.
Title: Re: MAK-nificently simple lunch.....
Post by: bbqchef on March 13, 2013, 03:51:57 PM: OK... You got me going with that so I thought I'd put a spin on it and make smoked home fries. (I'm getting bored with regular home fries.)

A couple of diced russets... some fresh chipotle powder (from yesterday's smoked jalapenos), a healthy sprinkle of Instant Gourmet, freshly ground black pepper, sliced red onion and diced green pepper...

Onto the Yoder (with hickory) and the A-Maze-N tube for some extra smoke... 250 degrees F.

Gonna let it cook for an hour and see where it needs to go from there... I have some homemade andouille that I'll diced up and add later.

It looks like you've discovered the wonder of the MAK griddle. I'm willing to bet it gets used a lot. 8)

Title: Re: MAK-nificently simple lunch.....
Post by: bbqchef on March 13, 2013, 08:31:59 PM: They took about two hours but came out OK... the onion and bell pepper were overcooked so I took them out of the mix and added freshly sauteed.

Mike

Post by: teesquare on March 13, 2013, 09:03:38 PM: I "carbonized" my onions too, Mike... :-[...Next time I will add the onions and any peppers, etc. at about 3/4 of the way thru the cook.

Thanks Don. The coriander and the garlic bring the savory aspect up in this sausage.

You could use other seasonings as you like of course.

Post by: bbqchef on March 14, 2013, 07:41:18 AM: I'll just saute up some red onion, bell pepper and garlic... add them to the reheated pots... then serve them with Cackalacky or Tiger Sauce.
