Can you smoke fruit? I

[Wunky]

Call me crazy, others have.. My PBC just arrived and that is the first thought that occurred to me. I am not thinking strawberries or anything delicate. I can only imagine how amazing some pears and stone fruits would taste when smoked. I realize I may have to wrap them ( banana leaf??) but I would see that as improving the taste. Any thoughts or comments welcome. Thanks

Yes you can

Sweet things work well, peaches and pineapple especially, but not usually smoked too much, more of a sear to caramelizing the sugars.

Any thoughts or guidance on how to do it?

Hey Wunky. Welcome to the Pit! I see you joined a few days ago. I've not smoked/grilled any fruit yet, but your post has me thinking pineapple would be awesome.

Smoked apples make a fantastic smoked apple pie. topped with smoked Wisc. Cheddar cheese.

When I was a teen in the 70s, the rumor was that you could get high smoking dried banana peels, but I guess that's not kind of smoking fruit you were asking about

As others have pointed out, pineapple does really well on the grill. I like to add some cinnamon to it while it's grilling.
