Posted: Jun 15 2007 Post subject: ABT help for newbie |
|
|
I am a newbie to grillin and don't have a smoker yet so I tried making the ABT's on the grill, but they didn't turn out.
I had half wrapped in bacon and the other half wrapoped in turkey bacon. They didn't taste good, the cream cheese hardened on the ends, the jaleps lacked flavor, and the real bacon didn't brown. The turkey bacon cooked nicely and was pretty tasty by itself.
I grilled them over indirect heat and kept the grill around 250-300 for almost 3 hours.
Any suggestions, besides buy a smoker? These look so tasty in the pics I have to keep trying until I get it right.

Make a pouch out of tin foil (double layers) put in a hand full of wood chips or those smoke pellets you see in the grill sections at the stores, poke a small toothpick sized hole in the sealed pouch. Make up two of these like that, place one packet at a time on the lava rocks of your gas grill or on the coals of your charcoal grill. You should get smoke for 15 to 30 minutes per packet. Keep your heat low like you had it, cook for 1 1/2 - 2 hours......
Should be good like that. This recipe started being done on the grill and we smoke heads tried it on our smokers and found out how much better they were and the rest is history or so they tell me.  |

Try making them with shrimp. Been making them with the skrimps for a long time. Hard to do on the grill because of flare ups but have yet to try them in the smoker. Also wrap them with seasoned fajitas and bacon. Gives them more uhhh girth I guess and you can make a meal out of them. My brother can't do shellfish so thats when we started using fajitas. Thought about using crawfish but I end up eating them instead of just peeling and wrapping. _________________ I see smoke..Houston we have no problem ! |

The second time around was a success. Thanks for the help Jeff.
I like the heat and flavor of the pepper, but not crazy about a lot of pepper meat, so I cooked a few using Poblano's and few using Anaheim's. The thin wall of these peppers is perect for me and they still have heat. I also used Sorano peppers in this batch as well as a few Jaleps.
While prepping the peppers and taking a small taste of the rib from a Poblano to test it's heat, it slipped and landed across my bottom lip. Needless to say, the Poblano rib is much hotter than I expected.

no problem Dave.
Say.... i`ve used these sweet peppers before and they turned out great also, not hot at all. http://www.masterstouch.com/bionova/Fruits&Vegs_PeppVineSweet.html
My local Wal-mart carries them. Pretty good for ABT`s when your guests are not into "Hot" foods. Shaped about like Jalapeņo also. |

I love cooking with those little peppers. Dont know too many that like em that way.
I meant cooking with them in general have not tried the abt thing yet . Get my smoker in less than 2 weeks though and I know they will be tested. Even have the wife jazzed up about them. |

No...but they'll do in a pinch if that's all you got. You'll find lil smokies in the refrigerated meat section by the bacon and hot dogs. _________________ Mike

Paco what area are you from ? Look for little smokies by the sausage, "deli" sliced meat, bacon area. In the markets around hear it's close to the meat section. OOps just read further up and allsmoke is right. Atleast it's in the same area in 2 different regions. _________________ I see smoke..Houston we have no problem ! |

When i first posted this recipe June 21st 2005 no one was talking about ABT`s here on the Smoke Ring and i thought i`d share this new found recipe. Its been a blast reading and seeing all the pictures of ABT cooks over the years.
Glad they were a hit for ya.
