Indirect Cooking with Smoke by Dana Carpender

This week our Recipe Club is hosted by Dana Carpender. The topic...You guessed it, Grilling! But her recipes come with a welcome twist, they are low-carb. Before you begin using her recipes, I suggest that you read this informative prelude.

Indirect Cooking with Smoke-The True Barbecue

How do you do this indirect-smoking thing? Well, if you're a real barbecue fanatic, you buy an actual barbecue pit, designed to do specifically this, and nothing but this. However, if you're a real barbecue fanatic, you certainly don't need any advice or explanation from me.

Chances are, however, that you don't want to invest in a special piece of equipment for the sole purpose of barbecuing. Panic not; you can do this indirect-smoking thing on your regular grill, be it a charcoal grill or a gas grill, provided that it has a hood. That's really the only feature that is essential: a hood to hold in the heat and smoke. Other than that, you can improvise to fit the equipment at hand.

As I said, "barbecue" specifically refers to food that is not cooked over a fire, but rather is cooked oh-so-slowly by smoke and indirect heat. How slowly? While writing this book I cooked more than one dinner that took nine hours of smoking, and it's not at all uncommon for ribs to take six hours. Barbecue is not a meal for people who need to be out and about all day! It is, however, just fine for a summer Saturday when you plan to be puttering around the house and yard; you can get other things done while tending to your 'cue every half hour to forty-five minutes. (On busier days, you can grill things instead-it's much quicker!) Click here for the rest of the Story

Orange Ancho Chile Barbecue Sauce

Here's a fun BBQ sauce. It's got a great flavor and will WOW your guests. Make some chicken K-Bobs with thigh or breast meat and place fresh cubes of pineapple between the chucks. Baste during the last few minutes and serve with a little warm sauce on the side. Great as an entrée or as a fun appetizer. If you are using bamboo skewers remember to soak them for thirty minutes before putting the meat on them. This will stop them from burning up on the grill.

Makes 4 servings

Ingredients:

1 cup orange marmalade
1 cup tomato sauce
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons ancho chile powder
1 teaspoon garlic, chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/4 teaspoon cumin, ground

Preparation:

Combine marmalade, tomato sauce, vinegar, ancho chile powder, garlic, salt, cayenne, and cumin in a small saucepan and stir to incorporate. Heat sauce to a boil, stirring often. Simmer for 2 minutes, and let cool completely.
