captain_philI'm going to have to give this a try,
Smoked Apples
Start with 6 apples (pears work too). Stabilize the apples by slicing a small amount off the bottom. Partially core the apples with a melon baller, leaving the bottom intact. Scoop out some of the fruit to make room for the filling and set aside.
In another bowl mix together 6 tbs. brown sugar, 1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg, 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon, 1/4 tsp. ground cloves, 2 tbs. softened butter, and 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract. To this mixture, add the apple pieces you removed earlier.
You can also add ground nuts to the mixture above.
Fill the apples with the mixture and top off with 1/2 to 1 tbs. of Maker's Mark.
To cook, set up your grill for indirect heat at about 250 to 300 degrees. Place the apples in a shallow aluminum pan in the center of the grill. Add damp wood chips to the coals, cover and cook for one hour.
Serve over ice cream. Be sure to spoon some of the syrup from the pan over the ice cream. Enjoy!!
