You know, the ones ya put on green beans for the holidays.

My niece calls them 'Oh boys'. I love these things and can't find them locally any more. Not even during the holidays. So I looked on Amazon and BAM...
I went thru the 1st 20 oz bag in a week and re-ordered. In the process, I stumbled across a similar product they had but with jalapenos. What the heck I thought, and got a bag as well.

The reviews were mixed, but I must say that these things are tasty! They don't have much of a jalapeno taste in my opinion. There's a mild heat to them, but they taste more like fried okra to me. I could eat a frying pan of fried okra, so it was definitely a win-win for me.

Then I thought... 'I wonder if I could smoke these'? Will find out this weekend. I'll be doing both of them.

I had some of the jalapenos last fall and really liked them. Yesterday I was at the store and they still had both the french fried onions and the jalapenos, which I was glad about. But they had 2 others flavors I have never seen - dill pickles, and red bell peppers. I can't say the pickles are that appealing to me, but I think the french fried red peppers could be great on a bunch of things that come off my smoker!s

Check out Cash and Carry - in the Bay Area stores they have both onion and jalapeno for a good price.

Hmm...interested in the red bell peppers too.  Love the onions.  Bought the jalapenos in December bought have not tried yet.

My Sam's club had them in the large bags during the holidays , I bought like 3 bags... they have a very long storage life.

One of the local eating establishments here have fried dill pickles on their happy hour menu and I'm here to tell you that they are surprisingly good.

1 hr of smoke was too much. It overpowered the taste of the onions and the peppers.

I'll add them back to the larger bag and hope they mellow out a bit.
