YOUR RESOURCE FOR EVERYTHING YODER SMOKERS
Our friend Gerardo fired up his Yoder Smokers Loaded Wichita offset smoker for this Smoked Ancho Chili Chicken cook for a Texas-Style flavor that looks delicious. Ancho chiles have a rich and complex flavor. They are sweet and taste a bit like plums or raisins. There is also a bit of a vegetal, tobacco-like back note with an underlying, almost chocolatey, earthy bitterness. That coupled with Gerardo’s ingredients of lime and garlic with a touch of oregano makes for some amazing flavor. Thanks to Gerardo for this one!
