Making chipotles?

[garymac]

Has anyone tried using the Smokenator to make Chipotle peppers out of jalapenos? I have seen threads on this in other places but didn't see any here when I searched. Since I've been using my Smokenator frequently I figured this was the best place to ask (and if it's already posted somewhere else I sincerely apologize in advance).

If you have and have any tips before I try it I would greatly appreciate any information you may have and be willing to share.

Thanks!!!!!!!

I would think in theory you could do it but everything I have read it takes quite a long smoke time so you would have to tend it but if you got the time go for it.

I have read somewhere that you need to use a dedicated smoker for jalapenos because of the residual that they leave behind. I wouldn't use a Weber for this. Perhaps a smaller one or a different smoker.
