I’m at all times smoking up new issues that will appear unusual at first however typically it finally ends up being actually good! One of many issues I’ve achieved however by no means wrote about is smoked popcorn and, when you should know, popcorn is considered one of my favourite snacks (I’ve many favorites although).

It’s simple to do and whereas I typically cook dinner popcorn the quaint approach in an enormous pot with quite a lot of shaking, I’ve made it simple on this recipe with a microwave popcorn popper utilizing kernels and coconut oil.

Did I point out that that is an awesome snack for the massive sport?😀

Let’s do that!

• Prep Time: 10 minutes
• Prepare dinner Time: 1 hour
• Smoker Temp: 180°F
• Advisable Wooden: Hickory

You are able to do the popping in a pot, use a microwave popper and even use microwave popcorn packs.. it’ll work simply advantageous.

Professional tip: when you make popcorn utilizing precise kernels from a bag, add coconut oil as an alternative of every other form of oil. It tastes nice and it helps the popcorn to prove extra crispy.

For those who use a microwave popper like I do (it’s higher than the microwave popcorn packs however simpler than utilizing an enormous pot), use 1/3 cup popcorn kernels and about 1 TBS of coconut oil.

Let the popcorn proceed popping till there’s greater than 3 seconds between pops. It’s okay if all the kernels don’t pop.

Take away the popper from the microwave and take away the lid as quickly as doable to let the steam escape.

Pour the popcorn right into a baking sheet or two. You need the smoke to have the ability to get to it very well so that you don’ need an actual thick layer.

You may as well use a foil pan when you desire.

You probably have your personal rub it’ll work simply advantageous.. I exploit Jeff’s authentic rub on the smoked popcorn that I make and everybody goes loopy over it. It’s low in salt and large on taste.

Ensure that so as to add lots and get a bit of on each single piece.

If it’s not sticking properly, you possibly can spray the popcorn with oil to assist the rub to stay higher.

Arrange your smoker for cooking at a really low temperature with gentle smoke. I used a pellet smoker for this and set it the particular smoke setting. This setting will normally preserve about 180°F (82°C) which is ideal.

In case your smoker makes use of a water pan, I like to recommend leaving it dry for this to ensure the popcorn stays good and crisp.

As soon as your smoker is able to go, place the pan of popcorn into the smoker and shut the lid.

Let it smoke for about an hour, stirring with a spoon or spatula about each 20 minutes to be sure you get good smoke protection.

➡ For those who want extra smoke in your smoker, see my article on utilizing a pellet tube.

I normally go for about an hour however this may range relying on how a lot smoke taste you need.

Each time you exit to stir, style a chunk of two and if it begins to get too smokey, you possibly can name it achieved. In any other case, you possibly can let it go longer when you desire.

Serve the smoked popcorn to your loved ones and friends and luxuriate in watching them go loopy over it.

I like to recommend making lots as a result of they’ll be coming again for seconds and thirds!
