Equipment & Fuel

Directions

  1. Cut sweet potatoes in half and poke holes with a fork. Place a stick of butter in a half pan with the sweet potatoes.
  2. Let them cook on the smoker for an hour or until tender.
  3. Brown a stick of butter in a pan.
  4. Place the pie crust on the smoker to brown lightly. Then remove from the smoker.
  5. Spoon the sweet potatoes and add in the brown butter, brown sugar, white sugar, flour and spices. Mix.
  6. Add wet ingredients (except for 1 egg and 1 TBS of water that will be saved for the egg wash). Mix.
  7. Pour the batter into the pie crust. Take additional pie crust and make shapes with cutters or stamps. Dip the edges in egg wash to stick to the pie crust.
  8. Smoke at 350 for 50 to 55 minutes, checking every 20 minutes. The pie should be set around the edges with the crust a light golden brown and slightly jiggly in the middle. Allow the pie to cool.
  9. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream. Enjoy!
