STOVE TOP SMOKER SOUTHWESTERN PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Prepare rub for tenderloins by snapping the stems off the dried chiles, if using them. For a milder rub, tap out and discard the seeds. Crumble the peppers into a small saucepan and add the coriander and cumin seeds. Toast the mix over low heat, stirring constantly, until the seeds are lightly browned and little wisps of smoke rise from the pan. Pour the spices into a plate and cool to room temperature. Grind them into a powder in a spice mill.
• Store in a covered container in a dark place for up to two weeks.
• Trim any excess fat from the tenderloins, if you like. I leave it on, there is never all that much.
• Season the pork tenderloins with 4 teaspoons of the rub.
• Smoke over medium heat using the wood chips of choice (2 tablespoons alder or cherry wood chips OR 4 or 5 teaspoons hickory wood chips) until an instant-read thermometer reads 145ºF, about 25 minutes from the time the smoker lid is closed. Check the tenderloin(s) for doneness with the thermometer after 20 minutes of cooking time, the remaining cooking time will vary with the thickness and shape of the tenderloin. SEE My NOTES.
• Note: If you want to make carving - and chewing - easier whenever you prepare pork tenderloins, cut away any silver skin, the grayish white membrane that coveres a portion of.
• the thicker end of the tenderloin: Slip a small sharp knife underneath one end of the silver.
• skin and with a gentle sawing motion, remove it from the pork, cutting off as little meat as.
• possible.

STOVETOP SMOKED CHICKEN RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Soak the applewood chips in cold water for at least 30 minutes. Drain before using.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the salt, pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, red pepper flakes, oregano, ground mustard, and brown sugar.
• Add the chicken drumsticks to a large bowl and pat dry with a paper towel. Season the chicken with the dry rub and toss to coat evenly. Set aside while you build the stovetop smoker.
• Line a Dutch oven or large, heavy-bottomed pot with a lid with 2-3 sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Spread the drained applewood chips in an even layer in the bottom of the pot and place the steamer basket on top.
• Place the pot over high heat. Once the wood chips start to lightly smoke, add the chicken drumsticks to the steamer basket, place another sheet of foil on top, and cover with the lid. Smoke the chicken over high heat for 8-10 minutes, then reduce the heat to medium-low and continue cooking for another 20 minutes. Turn off the heat and allow the chicken to sit in the smoker, covered, for an additional 10 minutes. The internal temperature of the chicken should register between 165-170°F (74-78°C).
• Arrange a rack in the upper third of the oven. Turn the broiler on high. Remove the chicken from the smoker, place on a rimmed baking sheet, and broil for 5-7 minutes, until the chicken has crisped and charred in spots. Serve immediately.
• Enjoy!
