Smoking Summer

[Loresinger]

Just got a refill on smoking wood, so here's what's cooking. I marinated small sweet peppers, elephant garlic, baby carrots, celery, broccoli, potato, cauliflower and onion in balsamic and olive oil. They are now smoking over orange / hickory wood with oranges on top to keep them moist. Will likely serve with rice

If I could reach it, boy would I give that rig SUCH a SCRUBBING!

I edited it because I saw a typo. Darned caps lock! Sorry for the harsh language!

I rather enjoy watching those cooking shows (notably Primal Grill) where smoking things is darned near a religion. We've got a local eatery that
specializes in smoked burgers/meatloaf/the like. Tried the smoked meatloaf once -- palatable, but nothing to write home about. Someday I'm going to hit one of those BBQ joints where everything including the ice water is smoked, and order their "little bit of everything" platter just to get a real sense of what a good smoking can do to a decent cut of meat.
