Instructions

1

Preparation

30 Min.

Halve the peppers, remove seeds and rub evenly with olive oil, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Let rest for 30 minutes.

2

Preheat Smoker

20 Min.

Preheat the smoker with beechwood to 110-120°C and wait for a stable smoke development.

3

Smoking

60-75 Min.

Place pepper halves cut-side up on the grate and smoke at 110-120°C for 60-75 minutes until the skin is lightly browned and the flesh is soft.

4

Resting and Peeling

15 Min.

Remove peppers from smoker, place in a sealed container or zip bag and let rest for 15 minutes, then carefully peel off the skin.

Pro Tip

For a more intense flavor, place the smoked peppers in a sealed container right after the smoker – the steam loosens the skin and the smoky aroma penetrates even deeper.
