Ok smoked pickles.......Go to grocery store or Sams or wherever has large jars of whole dill pickles. Around here usually about $6. I have a A-Mazen tube smoker for pellets.. I have done this on my cheap offset but usually my pellet grill, but I think any grill where you can put tube smoker on one end and exhaust on other end so the smoke flows over stuff would work(this is how I do cheese as well) Dont fire up cooker, cold smoke.
I dump out the pickles in a foil pan and all the juice in a separate pan. Depending on mood, I either put pickles directly on grate on furthest end from tube smoker or on foil lined grates or if temps are hot out, we are cold smokin, I put pickles in foil pan on top of a foil pan filled with ice. Between the tube smoker and the pickles I put the pan of the pickle juice as well. When the tube smoker burns the smoke flows across the juice and the pickles. I have checked temps before and with the tube burning it raises the cooking chamber no more than 5* mine actually is almost always about 3* where the pickles are. After about 3 hours, I have gone longer and shorter but 3 seems to work well for me, I pour juice pack into pickle jar then add the pickles. Seal it up good, with the lid is fine but I make sure lid is all the way down. And then I put it in fridge for at least a day. I have held for a week before but usually dont.
We have been selling these for $2 a pickle. I have tried different pellets but find pecan seems to work best for me. We vend in our town every Thursday once the weather gets better and these sell pretty good but when we do events they sell very good. Like I said kids want them and will get just one if kids by them selves. But if with adults they get the adults to get them one and then the adults who wouldnt normally come to our trailer have come up and get one and then other stuff.
For us, what we did, or do if at unfamiliar event, to get them started is cut up a pickle after we are at event and either have a thing out for a free pickle or walk around giving samples.
I hope I explained to where it is understandable.
