Reply to "What's Smoking?"

With my method, you steam the asparagus ahead of time to al dente. I use an ice bath to stop the cooking -- just dump the steamed asparagus into the ice water. Then take them out to drain. Then leave at room temperature until ready to smoke or grill. You can do this hours ahead of time. Right before you put them in the smoker, drizzle a little olive oil on them, then some salt and pepper. All you really need in the smoker is to heat them up and give them the smoke flavor. The steaming already cooked them. Maybe 30 minutes in the smoker ought to do it? I'm guessing. On the grill it took only 10 minutes or so.

Tom, Bododio. How do you know the asparagus is done in a smoker. Probe? Big Grin al dente? Apprx. time?

We're having steaks grilled for tomorrow's dinner. I'll give the asparagus a try. Garlic bread. Beans.
