Smoking Temperature: 240°F

Serves 4-8

Part 1: Smoked Grape Tomatoes

  • Bradley Smoker Jerky Rack (if you do not have one of these racks, then line your current racks with a little aluminum foil so that the grape tomatoes won’t fall through the spaces on the rack)

  • Kosher salt, to taste
  1. Set up Bradley Smoker according to manufacturer’s instructions.
  2. Rinse grape tomatoes under cold water.
  3. Place grape tomatoes evenly spaced onto jerky rack. Sprinkle with kosher salt.
  4. Place rack in smoker and smoke grape tomatoes for 2-3 hours, until the tomatoes start to soften and the skin gets a little wrinkly.
  5. Remove from smoker and allow to cool completely.
  6. Use smoked grape tomatoes to make smoky BBQ sauces, garnish for salads or, in our case, for the smoked frittata.
