Like Hobby Farmer, I also use a 'Lil Chief smoker. Found it on sale for
about $21.00. It was so easy it's hard to believe! As a first time smoker
I just used the pan and chips that came with the smoker and had good
results. I'll be a bit more creative this year. I also keep the peppers in
the freezer just to make sure they won't mold. Mine ended up the
consistance of prunes, shriveled but pliable. I wasn't sure how much
moisture to remove. Home-smoked chipotles are soooo good and so much less
expensive given how prolific jalapeno plants are!

p.s. Phil: Don't use your chile smoker for anything else. Off tastes will
result!
