[@fberger54]

We've been following you since day one and enjoyed every recipe. Looking forward to sharing the future ones with you. Thank you for all the hard work you put into each episode.

[@allthingsbbq]

We're thankful for your support! Glad you enjoy the recipes! 🙌

I've used a simliar smoked potato technique to make a smokey cold potato salad. It was a nice subtle flavor to really mix up the side dish.

[@allthingsbbq]

For sure! it's surprising how a little smoke flavor is all you need to spice things up every now and then! 💯

[@ChiliPepperMadness]

This gnocchi looks awesome!

[@DonPandemoniac]

I can't believe I haven't made Gnocchi from scratch yet, you make it look so simple and I always have the ingredients in house. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@allthingsbbq]

We hope you try it! Always fun to try new recipes! 🔥

[@chrispile3878]

That sauce looks like it would be incredible.

[@allthingsbbq]

Could not agree more! Looks incredible and verrrry delicious! 🔥

[@marcomirandola8979]

Thank you chef Tom for all your recipes! You demonstrate great skill, knowledge and respect for the food. I also enjoy how clear your explanations are and when I replicate your recipes at home the results are always above my expectations. Just a tip: I am italian and gnocchi is not pronounced "knee-oki" but the first gn sound is like Ñ in spanish. I hope this was helpful

[@KainamHD]

I thought for a second that I was saying it wrong all this time.

[@allthingsbbq]

Thank you for the kind words and feedback! We appreciate the pronunciation tip for "gnocchi" and will keep it in mind for future reference.

Holy Jesus! Tater dumplings, butter and mater sauce fortified with a little hooch! I’d get elbow deep in that!

[@allthingsbbq]

We love to hear it!!

[@milkod2001]

Followed your recepy and added my own twist to it. I didn;t use alcohol but added a small cubes of smoked bacon instead. it was delicious! For someone who is not into peppers and tomato sauce you can do very tasty food if you just roast smoked bacon and add sour cream on top when serving. It's another way how to eat Gnocchi and also super delish. Thanks for recepy though. I was always only boiling gnocchi didn't realise that if you roast them in butter they will taste better and won't stick! Nice.

[@TMac0925]

Never heard of it but I’ll take a 5 gallon bucket!

[@evanking2290]

Chef Tom could you do a seafood bisque soon? Perfect time now in the fall season!

[@FrankMakosiej]

I think a natural "next step" could be a potato and cheese pierogi recipe variant. And of course, a brisket filled pierogi...!

[@allthingsbbq]

Thanks for the suggestion! We'll let Chef Tom know!

[@JandS1503]

I use at the store this week. Picked up a Yoder y 640s! So excited!

[@allthingsbbq]

We love to hear it! Enjoy your new grill!

[@SmokedReb]

Awesome idea and recipe!!

[@allthingsbbq]

We couldn't agree more! Chef Tom is the🐐

[@k20fa5]

Looks AMAZING!

[@allthingsbbq]

Yesss! Thanks for stopping by and dropping the first comment! 🔥

[@NeilSpoonhower]

Some grilled sausage to that would be insanely good.

[@allthingsbbq]

Grilled sausage is insanely good with most things! 😝

[@AnimeAjay]

TIL this is how gnocchi is pronounced in the US. Either way, looks delicious. Thanks!

[@andrewknaff9220]

Smokey gnocchi sounds okey-dokey!

[@allthingsbbq]

Let's dig in! 🍽😋

[@Flipsidekid]

Looks amazing. For 8 people how many potatoes do you think I’d need? 5 lbs too much?

[@jessehaskell4538]

Did the potatoes take on any smoke? Did it cut through the rich sauce?

[@meatwhisperer]

Great timing. I bought some gnocchi on the way home from work and was going to search KZbin for a recipe. This is the winner! Although I have bourbon but no vodka…. Hmmm

[@allthingsbbq]

Let us know how your gnocchi experince goes!

[@carlonatale5448]

Always love gnocchi! 😋 How about with a meat sauce?

[@allthingsbbq]

Can't go wrong! Get lost in the sauce! 🔥

[@edclark1119]

I like peanut butter in potato skins.

[@allthingsbbq]

Sounds like a interesting flavor combo!

[@bmeclipse]

I sense a new series: Will it Gnocchi?

[@allthingsbbq]

Sounds like a Good Mythical Morning episode!

[@zieglla]

Any tips on how to keep a smoke tube lit? Every time I use mine the pellets always go out fairly quick after I light them

[@allthingsbbq]

To keep a smoke tube lit, start by using dry wood pellets and ensure proper airflow in your smoker or grill. Use a strong flame from a propane or butane torch when lighting the pellets, and let the tube preheat for a few minutes before inserting them. If the pellets go out, relight them as needed and experiment with different pellet brands and tube designs for the best results. Hope this helps!

[@zieglla]

@@allthingsbbq great! Thank you, I'm gonna try that

[@pandoraeeris7860]

Okie dokie smoky gniochi.

[@allthingsbbq]

Dr. Seuss would be proud!

[@prettyproblem16]

Let me get a plate. Do you think vodka sauce would go well with a lasagna or ziti

[@allthingsbbq]

Yes, vodka sauce can complement both lasagna and ziti deliciously!

[@conorbmcgovern]

Trust me... they do explode. Took hours to clean my oven when I forgot to prick them.

[@holgerdanske3960]

Great recipe, Tom, but you forgot to serve a glas of good Italian red vine ....

[@allthingsbbq]

You're totally right! Always an essential for Italian food. 🍷
