I had a lot of jalapeños for this year’s harvest. Probably 20-25 pounds. I had to throw away about 7 pounds of peppers because I took too long to do this project and they got moldy.
I didn’t know what to do with them all, so I made some chipotle powder!
I removed the stems and seeds from all of the peppers, smoked them over pecan chunks at 200 for about 4-5 hours, then stuck them in my dehydrator for 12 hours. After they cooled, I ground them up.
Except for coring all the peppers, It wasn’t too much work. It was a lot of fun! I mixed a spoonful in some Montgomery Inn BBQ sauce I had and it was marvelous on grilled chicken legs! Next is some chipotle mayo on a burger!
Maybe next year I’ll candy some too!
