Snipe Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 Since my tomato's was a huge bust, just got to hot to soon... And before the last of my maters went bad I decided to make some salsa... Blanch and removed the skin... Then I squeezed out the seeds and liquid.. Placed the maters on a wire rack then into the smoker for about a hour using hickory.. While the maters were smoking I simmered and down the liquid, ran through a strainer to remove the seeds.. Fresh out of the smoker... Dropped these in the blender and pulsed a few times to get the consistency I wanted.... Add to the pot with 1/2 of a large fine chopped onion, 3 cloves of fine chopped garlic, 3 jalapenos de-seeded and fine chopped...Simmer for 30-45 minutes add salt as needed.. After all said and done I managed to get two pint jars out of all my tomato's... Its a shame this is all I could get out of all my plants... Oh well it still home grown...

redkneck Posted July 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 Smoked maters! That's the way to take it to a new level. Sorry about your garden not doing so well. I put all mine in a raised bed this year. A bit more extra cash up front, but man do they take the water/fertilizer good. Of course in your case, more of a matter of heat than drought I guess.
