Avoid those with any visible blemishes as that usually indicates the fruit is bruised.<\/p>\n<p>Be sure you are doing the smoking process in a well-ventilated area or even outside.\u00a0 Kitchen hoods work great!<\/p>\n<h3><strong>\u00a0PREPARING THE HANDHELD SMOKER FOR SMOKED BANANAS:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_847\" style=\"width: 157px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smokinlicious.com\/blog\/bananas-ultimate-smoky-creamy-goodness\/chips-to-gourmia\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-847\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-847\" class=\"wp-image-847\" style=\"border: 4px solid #000000;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.smokinlicious.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/CHIPS-TO-GOURMIA-e1489587822933-224x300.jpg\" alt=\"Gourmia\u00ae Hand-held Smoker\" width=\"147\" height=\"197\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-847\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gourmia.com\/item.asp?item=10128\">Gourmia\u00ae Hand-held Smoker<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"wpsdc-drop-cap\">A<\/span> good rule of thumb prior to starting your smoking process is to be sure everything is in working order.\u00a0 Check the batteries of your handheld food smoker and the butane level of your lighter.

Now, place the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smokinlicious.com\/blog\/minuto-chip-page\/\">Minuto\u00ae<\/a> wood chips in the bowl of the unit being sure not to stuff.\u00a0 Remember, once lit, these handheld units produce a lot of smoke vapor quickly so everything needs to be set up well.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>PREPARING THE SMOKED BANANAS:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_844\" style=\"width: 202px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smokinlicious.com\/blog\/bananas-ultimate-smoky-creamy-goodness\/removing-peel\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-844\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-844\" class=\"wp-image-844\" style=\"border: 4px solid #000000;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.smokinlicious.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/REMOVING-PEEL-e1489587303163-224x300.jpg\" alt=\"Cutting and removing the peel to prep the bananas\" width=\"192\" height=\"257\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-844\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Removing the peel<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"wpsdc-drop-cap\">I<\/span> have a preference for using a small sheet pan or cookie sheet when I cold smoke fruits.\u00a0 It makes it very easy to expose the fruit to the smoke vapor without the need to rotate the food.\u00a0 As I want to get the good wood flavor to the bananas, I am peeling them and cutting them in 2-inch pieces as the recipe I plan to use them in will require smaller segments. I then placed the cut pieces on the sheet pan, and then secure a food storage bag or plastic wrap over the pan.\u00a0 Be sure you are able to draw at the end of the bag as if you\u2019re going to tie it off with a twist tie.\u00a0 The ability to cinch off the bag is what will ensure that the smoke vapor produced is trapped within the food bag and infuses each piece. If using plastic wrap, leave one end loose so you can insert the smoking tube. The length of time you leave the smoke vapor in the bag or under the plastic wrap will determine the strength of the flavor.\u00a0 I plan to incorporate dark chocolate, coconut, and nuts with my smoked banana so I will be filling the bag with smoke vapor and allowing it to dissipate on its own.\u00a0 Remember, <u>you<\/u> have control of when you release the smoke so timing is up to you!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_845\" style=\"width: 248px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smokinlicious.com\/blog\/bananas-ultimate-smoky-creamy-goodness\/smoking-process\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-845\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-845\" class=\"wp-image-845\" style=\"border: 4px solid #efde10;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.smokinlicious.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Smoking-process-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Smoking the bananas with the Gourmia Mini Smoker\" width=\"238\" height=\"238\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-845\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Smoking the Banana&#8217;s with the Gourmia\u00ae Mini Smoker<\/p><\/div>\n<h3>S<strong>MOKING PROCESS<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wpsdc-drop-cap\">M<\/span>y <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gourmia.com\/\"><strong>Gourmia\u00ae <\/strong><\/a>handheld food smoker is assembled and filled with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smokinlicious.com\/blog\/minuto-chip-page\/\">Wild Cherry Minuto\u00ae wood chips in Size #8<\/a> from <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.smokinlicious.com\/\">SmokinLicious\u00ae<\/a>.<\/strong>\u00a0 I now position the smoking tubing within the sealed bag or under the plastic wrap if you are using that, and cinch the excess around the tube to prevent any smoke from exiting while the unit is on.\u00a0 I turn on the handheld smoker and lite the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smokinlicious.com\/blog\/minuto-chip-page\/\">Minuto\u00ae wood chips<\/a>.\u00a0 Once I have enough smoke into the bag, I will shut the unit off, remove the tubing, and seal the bag using a cable tie or tighten the wrap around the sheet pan.\u00a0 Can it get any easier than that?\u00a0 This will let you see just how long smoke vapor can last in a contained area.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>THE FINISH OF SMOKED BANANAS:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"wpsdc-drop-cap\">A<\/span>s I see the bag start to clear of the smoke vapor, it\u2019s time to release the cable tie and be ready to remove my smoked banana slices for my recipe.
