Smoked Tomato Recipe
Smoked tomatoes have a rich and intense flavor with a smoky undertone. The texture is soft and tender, with a slightly chewy skin and a juicy interior that bursts with flavor. If you've got in season tomatoes, absolutely throw a couple of these on your smoker as a side dish while smoking your main course, or even for use as an ingredient in other dishes.
