Smoke Baked Barbecue Chile Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) baking dish with cooking spray.
• In 12-inch skillet, cook beef, onion and bell pepper over medium-high heat 9 to 11 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beef is thoroughly cooked; drain.
• Stir in tomatoes, kidney beans, barbecue sauce, taco seasoning mix and chili powder. Heat to boiling, stirring frequently. Separate dough into 8 biscuits. Transfer beef mixture to baking dish; top with biscuits.
• Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until biscuits are thoroughly baked and golden brown. Sprinkle cheese over top; bake 5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Garnish with green onions.

Steps:

• 1. Fill your charcoal chimney with briquets, set the chimney on the bottom grill grate, and light or prepare a fire in your smoker. For a gas grill, turn half the burners to high.
• 2. Line the bottom and sides of the pie crust with the chile pepper strips, reserving a few to garnish the top of the pie. Top with the cheese, spreading it out evenly over the bottom of the crust.
• 3. In a small sauté pan over medium heat, sauté the onions in the olive oil until softened, about 3 minutes. In a medium-size bowl, combine the eggs and onion, then pour the mixture over the cheese. Arrange the reserved chile pepper strips on the top of the pie.
• 4. When the coals are ready, dump them into the bottom of your grill, and spread them evenly across half. Scatter the drained wood chips on the hot coals, or put the dry wood chips in a metal container and place closest to a burner on a gas grill. Place the pie on the indirect side of the grill. When the smoke starts to rise, close the lid.
• 5. Smoke bake the pie at 350°F for 40 to 45 minutes or until the crust has browned, the filling has set, and the pie has a mild, smoky aroma. Sprinkle with the bacon before serving.
