Friends: Flipping through the BBQ FAQ, I found a reference by someone who baked a pecan pie on cherry wood...in a smoker. Said it was good. My question, when baking a pie, do you run the heat up in the smoker to 350, or stick with the meat temp of 220? Seems like you need high heat, right? Thanks for a tip. acarriii

acarriii,

We have a recipe in the Cookshack cookbook called Smoked Apple Pie with Smoky Cheese Topping, Here is the recipe




  • 5 or 6 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored
  • 1 tsp. lemon Juice

  • 2/3 Cup Sugar

  • 1/3 Cup packed brown sugar

  • 1 tsp. cinnamon

  • 1/2 Cup water

  • 2 to 4 tbsp. cornstarch

  • 1 recipe 2 crust pie pastry

  • Smoky Cheese Topping




Slice apples 1/8 inch thick. Toss with lemon juice, sugars and cinnamon. Combine with water in heavy saucepan. Cook until apples are tender, stirring occasionally. Stir enough cornstarch dissolved in a small amount of cold water into the apple mixture to thicken to desired consistency. Cook until thickened, stirring constantly. Put apple filling into flat pan and smoke over apple, maple of other mild wood at 180 to 200 degrees for 30 minutes. Pour into pastry-lined pie plate. Top with remaining pastry, sealing edge and cutting vent. Bake pie in conventional oven at 400 degrees for 45 minutes or until crust is brown. When ready to serve the pie, put a thin slice of Smoky cheese on top and warm in microwave.


  • Recommended Wood: Apple, maple or any mild wood

    Hope this helps.
