RE: So we tried a thing...

Only to be completely disappointed. The smoke flavor was just too overpowering. That's the only flavor you really got out of it.

Hi Bozz... my guess you should try to cover/close the recipient rather put some wholes in it. It will then 'cook' more in it's own juice. And i'm kinda shure you'll still get some smoked taste out of it, even like that. 🤷‍♀ 😏
