Okay my friends first thing we got to do is grow some high quality Peppers now you can use any Peppers but I like these pablanos and for the fullest Flavor in Your paprika you want to let them go until they are fully ripe this is important then we’re going to wash them

And dseed them this step is very important otherwise it may taste like paint and nobody wants that next thing we’re going to do is make us a snake on the Weber kettle like this and then we’re going to take some of that seasoned Red Oak or whatever kind of

Wood that you have but I like Oak for the best flavor put it around that snake like this and then we’re going to light only the head of the snake and then we’re going to put them peppers on there and the snake is going to wrap around

And for 6 to 8 hours we don’t have to do anything and it will be smoking these Peppers absorbing that delicious flavor then we’re going to take them and put them into the dehydrator for 24 hours until they sound like this that is very important that they’re that dry then we

Only grind up as much as we need to use in the next month the rest of them we’re going to store just like this

  1. Delicious!!! You have expanded my flavour world friend. Tried this last year with onions and garlic too.

  2. Your peppers are beautiful. I have been picking my poblanos green, maybe that's why they're bitter? I love smoked paprika.

  3. You fit the whole process into a short. I am slightly embarassed to say, I never knew paprika was made from peppers😅😂. I wont be avoiding using it in my cooking now.
    Do you think I can grow Pablano in Zone 11? We can grow green and banana peppers, and jalapeno here, maybe more dunno.

  4. OH WOW AWESOME! YUMMY YUM😋 The taste buds are going wild, just looking at those crumpious gorgeous beautiful red Pablanos.
    Thank You again NATE!
    You have done it yet again in producing for another fabulous video!

  5. You gotta get some lump charcoal. The briquettes have additives to keep them burning. If memory serves you are supposed to completely burn them before cooking over their coals so you aren't ingesting the chemicals… I stopped using them years ago.
