Peppers. Smoke and then dehydrate. I like CaptainMike 's answer much better, though. I couldn't even type my answer at first because I was laughing too hard.

What do you smoke and keep around that is not meat?

Brown sugar -- really! I've been known to smoke up sliced onions for the freezer. Adds a nice punch of smoke replacing sautéed onions in a recipe.

Do you have any tips? I tried smoking brown sugar once and after a couple hours time and 30 lbs of wood it tasted like regular brown sugar. I gave up after one trial, wasn't very interested in more experimenting. (I suspect wetting it down lightly?) BUT, I like to think it would make my morning oatmeal phenomenal!

I didn't smoke this batch. I think a spray of water would help smoke stick. You have to start with moist brown sugar (not dried in the oven), and spread it out thinly on the pan. This may be more suited to pellets or semi-cold smoking.

I haven't been successful at smoking shelved & stored items, like brown sugar and salt. BUT to be honest I gave up after minimal trials because to me it wasn't worth it. 'Not worth it' would surely change if I revisited it with better techniques....

JGrana,
This look amazing. I’m going to have to give it a try. I was thinking it would need large salt cristals in a strainer to facilitate smoke contact; however, in your photo it looks like a regular baking sheet straight into the KBQ. I’ll have to try it.
Thank you,
Ricardo

texastweeter - Never heard of fresnos, but looked them up and they sound interesting. Do you grow from seeds, or buy the ripe peppers? If from seeds, where do you get them? I saw several seed suppliers that list them, but it wasn't clear that they were all the same.
