We grew some jalapeños and jalafuegos (bigger, hardier hybrids), and I wanted to try my hand at making chipotles.
Washed the peppers, sliced once from stem to tip, smoked at 200° for 90 min, then flipped for another 90 min.
Once done, removed the stem and seeds, and spread flat skin side up on a dehydrator rack. Dried for 24 hours at 135°, then ground into powder.
Don't mind the blackened spots, I had a small pellet fire.

How did it turn out flavor wise
Like the auto mod said, it looks like you posted an image !! Looks like it’s gonna be great. I need to do this
That seems like a lot of work for chipotle powder. Is it worth the extra effort when compared to store bought?
I commend you for taking the initiative! As a Hungarian you are inspiring me to make some smoked paprika myself!
