Description
Smoked Asparagus - this Spring popular vegetable is full of flavor now with the help from your smoker!
Ingredients

Instructions
- Set your smoker to 225 or 230
- Cut the ends off of the asparagus (where they easily snap off and toss them). Place the asparagus in a bowl and drizzle the asparagus with olive oil. Season them with the salt and pepper.
- Place the asparagus on a sheet of tinfoil and fold the sides of the tinfoil up to create a basket.

Always cut the white stalky stems off the bottom of the asparagus.
You do not need to blanch or soak the asparagus before placing them on a smoker.
