I've Waited for YEARS! HomeGrown Chipotle Peppers ~ Smoked Jalapeno peppers

[@susanjones3989]

My family loves BBQ anything. I will take a piece of top sirloin, chicken breast or pork chops. I either make a foil pan from heavy duty aluminium foil or use a store bought foil pan. Place your meat in...add peppers, onion and garlic. Whatever your family likes. Add water to just cover the meat then seal with foil. Cook till tender. AMAZING!!!!! I'll pop some baked potatoes and corn on the cob onto the grill too. Mo mess meal. I mix peppers for different flavors. Also...for convenience sake I freeze bags of mixed peppers and onion. I can just grab a handful as needed. Love watching your show. I can see the love in your family. Beautiful...

[@hlandqueenful]

If you make adobo my favorite way to use it is I sauté shredded carrot, onions and a lot of cabbage in butter and add the adobo a splash of vinegar and smoke fish. We cook it down and eat it on tostadas with a little lime over it. It’s delicious

[@madeofyucca]

If the dehydrator smells like smoke (or any other strong flavors) a trick is to deydrate potatoes in it. The potatoes will absorb the strong odors.

[@kimcouch8285]

My face is burning watching you do this. Because my face is always burning doing this!

[@sharonbyers3982]

Good morning Sara... I have prepared at least a million peppers in my life (and yes, I know about the gloves) but a spoon to the scrape the seeds never crossed my mind...DUH. Learn something new every time I watch y'all and I've already got 74 years worth in my head. My Mama said "You're never to old to learn" and she was right wasn't she. Bless y'all, Oklahoma Grandma

[@bengali481]

I have a couple of beat up old pointed grapefruit spoons from a thrift store that are perfect for seeding peppers.

[@nmorgan72]

I add chipotle in adobo to my home made hummus... delish for pita chips or veggies

[@europoamerico7605]

This girl really likes chipotle peppers and so do I. In central México we use these peppers to prepare quite a bit of dishes. Mole, stews, soups and salsas..

[@tammysarrazin7078]

i like any hot peppers yummmmmm my fave is jalapeno with feta cheese inside them with a good crusty bread yummmmm

[@cathleencaratan3373]

They look beautiful. Heidi from Rain Country uses a homemade vacuum sealer using tubing, a brake bleeder, and the jar attachment (for those who may not want to get the food saver machine).

[@XOXSPANKYXOX]

I love watching your videos. I am looking to moving to Missouri in the next couple of years. So excited. I can't wait to get a my gardening under way!!

[@DistractedDaisy]

If you make a fish soup.. you can chop up the chipotle pepper and use it in the base or rouge you make up for your soup.. they give it a great smokey flavor..

[@aleciahamiter6554]

I read somewhere that after dehydrating onions to get rid of the onion smell on the dehydrator to do a batch of potatoes in it .....maybe that would work for peppers as well if there is a lingering pepper smell.

[@RockingCHomestead]

Some good looking peppers.

[@suzannedavis6099]

Can't wait for pepper season to make some of those...Great idea!!!

[@theIAMofME]

Get a grinder and chop some up and put them in there. Then, over your savory snacks, or just your portion of something, grind some of that lovely goodness on to whatever you want. This video was so relaxing. Thanks for that.

[@katherinel.417]

Those peppers are beautiful and bring me soo much joy!!! Rehydrate, puree and add to homemade barbecue sauce to make chipotle BBQ sauce to put on meats!!! Yummm

[@karolynle6854]

Good morning 👍 ✌

[@jenendahunter8207]

Good morning Sarah! You always look like you are having a great time! Have a awesome day! Jenenda

[@docpadma]

Sara ! you are beautiful !! We use this in our Indian cuisine for seasoning. In ghee or hot oil, either put mustard seeds or cumin and then a few of these and then go on to make the veggie/curry whatever. usually I just saute vegetables in that oil. I also put some turmeric, with a hint of pepper for the turmeric to be absorbed, 1-2 cloves salt and my veggies are delicious.

[@t9t9t9t9t9]

simp

[@charleyu5506]

it's mexican indian curry lol I always thought of mixing mexican dried peppers with curry I bet it tastes amazing

[@aretha511]

Very Nice Video . Always so cheerful and excited brightens my day are sweet Sarah. I am going to try growing and smoking Paprika Peppers for the first time .I Am very excited and Looking forward to this coming Garden Season. LV.

[@TheRustySpigot]

This was a beautiful video. Oh the colors!!

[@donnajowers4271]

I had a very good harvest on my peppers too,especially the jalepenos. We have a smoker just like yours so I'm going to smoke mine too.I never thought about doing that.I made 2 batches of cowboy candy and still have a bunch!! I'm sorry I couldn't give you any ideas but I sure am glad you helped me out!! Have a blessed day Sara and thanks again!!

[@Iloveorganicgardening]

Awesome...my jalapeños are doing great this year...I don't have a smoker but I got a smoke box to put in my grill

[@johnmilkent9488]

Hey good morning I love your videos. I have 2 suggestions. 1. A coarse grind and shaker bottle. If you use parmesan cheese in a shaker bottle that lid should fit a quart jar. 2.can them in adobo sauce. I don't have a recipe but I know my mom used to do it and it was amazing! Thanks please keep the videos coming!

[@sylviabradley7355]

I love your clean, uncluttered kitchen. Thanks for the explanation of the different peppers.

[@brendachapman9431]

I Think You Will Do Well Growing Your Peppers Every Year Now That You Have That Beautiful Garden Going! I Can't Wait To See What Next Year Holds! Love

[@nancycowan6109]

I'm not a real fan of chipotle peppers in adobo (bought canned version). But this video may make me change my mind. Hickory smoked jalapeños - in homemade tomato sauce - maybe not the "recipe" but certainly delicious sounding. I'm going to try it. My husband just bought an electric smoker. (FYI! Whole potatoes take forever, never truly cook and aren't that good.) What makes me so satisfied with you and your family and lifestyle is that you are so real. Love when you get excited about a random squash. It reminds me when I found a little bunch of red potatoes in my compost heap. This older lady (64) in the middle of a big city can learn and appreciate what you do. Really. ❤️

[@50shadesofgreen]

good day to you Kevin and Sarah !! thanks for sharing another awesome update and adventures on & off the homestead 👨‍🌾🎥👍✝

[@valariebrownson8173]

Another great video ya'll, looked like you were really enjoying your time in the kitchen. Your peppers looks pretty.

[@bettysams8559]

Hi Sarah, enjoyed your video as always. Can't believe I forgot to plant Jalapeno's this year.

[@Sjiesjam]

Great idea to use a melonballer, I use a teaspoon. But your's cuts better.

[@phoebemckenzie5707]

good morning look forward to seeing you and kevin and everyday hope that he has good luck hunting today and every time he hunts

[@StockingMyPantry]

I'm not on a homestead, and in fact, live in a townhouse without a yard. In spite of that, I've started indoor gardening and want to give peppers a try. This video inspired me to check out indoor smokers, as I'm always looking for ways to "homestead" without having a yard. ;)

[@shannonhicks8755]

Tamales! Boil, blend with some water that was boiled in, strain if you'd like, refrigerate over night and it turns to jelly, easy to use tamale sauce for the meat and masa! We mix the masa in with sauce for extra flavor.

[@charmainemontgomery582]

Thank you for sharing your pepper saving video 😃

[@NS-pf2zc]

That's it. I'm getting a smoker. Those look really awesome! Our jalepenos did great this year, but they were planted late and not many were red by the time frost came. Next year I'll hopefully have a greenhouse to give me more time, lol.

[@Picklesboothe57]

Thanks for sharing, really enjoy your channel.

[@samfinn487]

thnks

[@loriehabel1552]

When we are excited about things its always easier to get the work done. Your peppers were so bountiful and gorgeous. Thank you for sharing. Hope Kevin gets acouple more deer. Crush some of those down and add to your venison jerky.mmm good.

[@peacemakingrebel9642]

Hello Sarah, if you place the smoker racks in a garbage bag and a rag with ammonia on it, seal the bag for 24 hrs the grills will be much easier to clean. Just put the ammonia on the rag you don't have to worry about spraying it directly on the grill. Hope this helps.

[@lindagiammarco2687]

Good morning Sara. Your pepper harvest was amazing. Making your own chipotle peppers was interesting. Thanks for sharing. 😊🌶🌶🌶

[@leslieMClass80]

Good morning Sarah! Thank you for sharing this video, another thing learned! 😊. Have a great day!

[@staceykaloff9659]

Hello Sara, I have been enjoying your families videos, with chipotle peppers I grind them to a fine powder & mix with honey to make a sweet & spicy honey. I use it to drizzle on roasted chicken after it comes out of the oven or I mix with some mayonnaise for sandwich spreads or to dip crispy oven baked fries or zucchini chips in😁

[@TheGardeningArtist]

They look beautiful 💕

[@robertorocha5495]

I really liked the step by step process you went through. Lovely music and settings as well. Thanks for sharing.

[@va9467]

You can place your old canning lids in the dehydrator to heat them and they will make a fantastic seal; alone or when you use your air extractor. It warms the plastisol and makes it softer for a tighter seal. Greetings from Alberta, Canada.

[@swianecki]

Excellent video Sarah. Your peppers are gorgeous.

[@GladysRWhite]

Hello Sarah! If you want to make adobo for your chipotles because adobo is not just a tomato sauce, here is the recipe I use and it is delicious, if you want to try it: Adobo for chipotles. This process will take some time, as the concoction will need to boil at a low flame for some time. But the result is wonderful! Ingredients: 100 grams red chipotle 2 (whole) chile ancho (anchos are dried ripe poblanos, which are sweeter and red) 2 (whole) chile pasilla ¼ cup chopped onion 1 garlic clove 2 roma type tomatoes bre-boiled For seasoning, we use about: 1 tsp oregano, 1 tsp clove, 3 or 4 laurel leaves, a pinch each of: marjoram, thyme, allspice, black pepper, and salt We will also need white vinegar (about 1 cup) (Feel free to adjust the seasoning to your taste.) Instructions: In one pot with hot water, place the chiles ancho and pasilla and allow them to rehydrate whole as they are, all night. In another pot, do the same with the red chipotles. We do it separately because we will use them at different stages. The next day: 1. Blend the rehydrated ancho and pasilla chiles with some of their water, the garlic clove and the tomatoes. Blend them real well as we will pass them through a strainer, so that we don’t waste any of the pulp. 2. Place a pan on the stove, and add about 2 cups of olive oil, turn the flame on low-to med heat. Drain the blended - sieved sauce over the oil in the pot. Mix with a wooden spoon, slowly and thoroughly. Make sure to clean under your sieve/strainer for the pulp. 3. In a pan with some oil, add the onion, and when it is translucent, add it to the adobo. 4. Season the adobo. 5. When it comes to the boil, add the cup of vinegar, let it boil a little, mixing softly with the spatula, and then you may add the drained CHIPOTLES. 6. Let the sauce boil at a med-low flame for about 45 minutes. This will allow the chipotles to cook in the sauce and the flavors of both will merge and the sauce will thicken. We want the chipotles to remain whole, so careful not to smash them. 7. Now you can use your sauce in your dishes, or put it in your glass jars for storage in the fridge. Hope you like it and enjoy it as much as we do!

[@eddiejordan7061]

Hello Gladys, I don't know if Sara will use this recipe for your Adobe I know i will come next fall God Bless

[@GladysRWhite]

No problem, Eddie. At least the recipe is out for anyone interested! God bless you too! :) Adobos need chilis, vinegar, spices and are thick!

[@rosejarman6920]

Can the jars of finished peppers be canned?

[@americaneden3090]

Tfs Gladys 😁

[@BethMacDur]

I am so keeping this recipe to make my own adobo. Gracias and greetings from a grateful Mexican :)

[@Lcwp1963]

Wonderful video. I want to try drying my jalapenos this year, I just wish they would turn red already. My plants are loaded with green peppers, so waiting, waiting, waiting, and hoping we don't have a frost. Have a great day.

[@snapstring3134]

I’m enjoying the journey with you guys. Awesome video

[@brandyfillie8995]

Thank you Sarah!! I have been waiting for this video.

[@cathybehrens6250]

Clever way to clean the seeds out!! Great vid :) One thing I learned years ago about using used lids is that any lids canned in the water bath canner are safe to reuse (esp. jams, fruit-low time foods), but not lids that have been used in pressure canning. However, even the water-bath canned lids I double-check to make sure they're not bent (from opening) or compromised. And...not to reuse for a pressure canned item.

[@zaviahopethomas-woundedsou9848]

How about making a salad dressing with 1/2c oil, 1/4c key lime juice, chipotle pepper flakes to taste, fresh cilantro and a bit of honey and Mexican oregano!

[@michaellane9079]

Good idea but that's my marinade I change it around from there but very similar to my base for many grilled dishes. Lots of home dried chiles to use.😁😁

[@joyceshelby8858]

Great video. I put the peppers whole to top of my beef or pork roast, wonderful. I enjoy your videos so very much, look forward to each and everyone of them. God Bless You and Your family

[@thebeans7846]

I cut them up with kitchen shears and add to slow cooking nacho cheese dip and hearty winter chili ... still looking for other uses, too! Love your presentation!

[@LivingTraditionsHomestead]

Yum! Good idea!

[@sneezieweezie64]

Good morning and God bless you! I just love your recipes with the peppers. I have Hungarian peppers I had overgrown this here and I'm gonna try this . I have already made the salsa..... Yummy 😋

[@amandabarnes5235]

Mmmmm, yummy!!

[@rogerreid4278]

Awesome. I just did this for the first time yesterday with my red jalapenos and they came out great, smoked then whole cause we like the heat. Next the adobo sauce....love your videos.

[@melsolomon8256]

Thank you for sharing.

[@Tadpole102464]

Good Morning Sara, i didn't know that was how chipotle pepper were made, thanks so much! gonna try this as soon as possible!

[@15acrehomestead10]

Great video enjoy watching them and learning new ways of doing things . My pepper harvest was good this year

[@giselecollins2133]

I like your Chipotle very much I will grow them this year I live in England

[@mitche499]

Sarah, I always learn something helpful from your videos, thank you for the encouragement. :-)

[@debraxochimitl7980]

Hey Guys, I just made some chipotle chilies with nadapenos! It allows me to make my typical chipotle salsa with regular chipotles made rom jalapenos, but I use the nadapeno chipotles to add a burst of flavor without adding even more heat.

[@RockStarVee]

Hi, Sarah! Any chance you could make a video about your secrets to pepper success? :)

[@LivingTraditionsHomestead]

Rabbit poop. 😂 It'd be a short video. Ha!

[@veronical3135]

Been searching for these exact steps on how to dry jalapenos. I’m on the other side of the earth where jalapenos are inexistant and I’m growing them this year for the first time. Thank you for making this video.

[@stephensalinas9411]

Love the video! I am so happy you were able to finally get your chipotle peppers.

[@haley9293]

So therapeutic to watch :) peaceful life!

[@sissydewoody8717]

Aaaah - triple ditto

[@JoshuaSmithHomesteader]

Cheers Sara! We grow and harvest our food as well. Going to try this next year.

[@paulajones1059]

Off the pepper topic, but I purchased the dehydrator that you are using from your Amazon shop and I like it. I've dried my herbs and some flowers and I like the results. Thanks for the suggestion.

[@anneo3754]

Thanks for sharing! I have a few jalapenos I think I'm going to use your process to store them.

[@deborahalfano2264]

Just love watching you in the kitchen, you are living the life I dreamed about. God Bless from Canadian fan.

[@pieceofpeacehomestead529]

I also finished my smoked peppers in the dehydrator. The next day I dehydrated apples. It actually gave the apples a slight smokiness. Should be interesting when I make apple pies this winter!

[@sweetpea9433]

Hi Sara I love your videos thanks for sharing

[@dalejones9562]

Grind some up into powder or flakes: Add the powder to a pan and heat for a while with oil. Add flour and make a roux. Then add chicken stock and cook it until you like the consistency. Sweeten a bit after. Makes a great sauce for enchiladas.

[@adriennebeck6650]

I have learned more from you about the different varieties of peppers and pepper products than anywhere else. I'm excited about trying to make my own paprika from home grown peppers this year.

[@sarajane6168]

great video, thanks

[@margaretthompson6391]

I use chipotle anch and guajillo (sp?) peppers in beef stews. I put them in whole like a bay leaf and then may mash them in before serving depending on how hot the final product is.

[@RusticByNature]

your peppers look beautiful.

[@sissydewoody8717]

Don't they? Would make a good subject for an oil painting.

[@beardsbountifulbunnies1691]

My husbands favorite sauce is saracha. I am so excited for that amazon giftcard I am going to finally be able to get a dehydrator I have been wanting and just havent had the money for. thank you guys so much.

[@maryfeist8080]

I use a grapefruit spoon to get seeds out, it's a perfect size!

[@traceyosterlind14]

I love making Alton Brown's chili powder. Some smoked Chipotle peppers in there would be great. I make it in its own jar (you know a blender bottom fits on a canning jar right?) and let it sit for an hour or so, otherwise you can make tear gas as well, LOL. Don't ask me how I know!

[@MichelleM0704]

I have enjoyed all your pepper videos this year. You're paprika pepper one inspired me to search for my favorite paprika pepper. Next year, I'll be growing Feher Ozon, Buldog, & Leutschauer for sure. I hope to also grow Alma too if the trade I am setting up works out. Thanks for sharing.

[@pamelamercado2392]

I use the peppers when making barbecue sauce also in Mexican spaghetti and actually and squash dishes just to spice him a little and they're actually good to put a little in sweet potato dishes

[@dpower02]

I save my peppers in the mason jars and put in whole halves into stew or soups cooked on cold winter days

[@TheChristinaJo]

Such pretty peppers!

[@knkbigelow]

I have used chipotles in adobo sauce to make a pesto for pasta. It is pretty spicy but really good. I use oil, walnuts (cuz I'm cheap), parm, and the chipotles with some adobo. grind it together and add to hot pasta.

[@jenelljurado8500]

Next growing season Can u all do a step by step series on growing just peppers alone? I'm a first time grower And I been able to grow everything by seed just fine but the one thing I have not been able to grow yet is PEPPERS! I dont know why... And sense you have had SO MUCH SUCCESS, Maybe a series would be a good idea? Please consider

[@sissydewoody8717]

I'm ditto on that idea !

[@wendymanring6456]

Omg they are my favorite buy them all the time had no idea that it was a jalapeno.feel so stupid we grow them every year and they go to waste . thanks i have learned so much ..So excited for next year.

[@jennienniedots]

We actually have two dehydrators and one is used exclusively for strong odors - for instance when I dry onion for minced onion or to make onion powder or for dehydrated cubes or slices for throwing in soups and stews and crockpots. Same with garlic - that smell takes a lot to go away - so strong herbs, onion, garlic, peppers etc - go in a different dehydrator with different trays so that my fruit leather doesn't come out with an onion flavor (which has happened lol) We have never smoked our peppers - I usually use an upholstery needle and thread and run the thread thru the tops and just hang them until they dry (on a back covered porch that is covered) - Although we are also in California and its 75 degrees today - so im not sure how well you could do that in the fall in a more humid climate.

[@kuriouskat1490]

I hope you come out with a recipe with those dried peppers. Do you dry any other of your garden veggies? I am looking to grow more with different ways to preserve the harvest beside freezing and some canning. I love your videos!

[@amandapittar9398]

It’s 11.10pm here in NZ and just Spring. I’ve been planting out my habanero and wildfire chillies ( grown from seed) over the past week. They usually do well. This year I will feed them with sheep manure. I will be making your recipe chilli powder and I preserve them in oil too. This looks GOOD too. Xx🌺

[@claireclaire8370]

I'm terrified of anything spicy so the only pepper I grow is a bell pepper. LOL. But the video was awesome as usual. I love watching your Channel.

[@kaylathompson75]

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE....can we get a video on you making and canning them in the adobo sauce!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@ysmeine8]

Those look closer to a morita chili. Also made from jalepinos and smoked. I love them in tomatillo salsa for a smoking salsa on tacos. Also good in soup. I buy a Chipotle salsa in a small tin that makes a great marinade, it is slightly sweet. I have thought about doing this myself since we use so many morita chilis.

[@Iloveorganicgardening]

I did smoke my jalapenos And they came out great. I dropped the dry peppers up in my biomis in my vitamix but they were in a powder. It took a while to get everything done but it sure tastes good

[@willdwyer6782]

You don't have to smoke them so long or dehydrate them unless you want to extend their shelf life as a dry good or grind them for chili powder. Adobo sauce works like pickling brine if you make it right. I have a temperature controlled pellet smoker loaded with mesquite set at 250F for 2 hours and pickle them in mason jars with a hot water bath to seal the lids.

[@nancykeyser-miller7685]

Good morning Sara. I think they would make a great addition to sausage. Chipotle links for hot sausage sammies.

[@LivingTraditionsHomestead]

Yum!
