Drying Tomatoes on the Barbie

My fifth go at drying tomatoes, not yet happy with the results. Almost dropped the phone into the barbie taking this pic.

Drying tomatoes on the barbie, these are mostly the plum tomatoes from the garden, some Siberian and store bought plums also. This time I tried to keep the pieces all about the same size. I have the draft wide open and am trying to keep it around 200F, which is hotter than the last time. Drying some eggplant also, they come out real nice.

I quarter up the tomatoes, scoop out the pulp, toss w/ a little olive oil, chopped basil from the garden and a generous dash of garlic powder. The quarters are arrayed on baking grids set on the grill one deep and if possible separated. If the fire gets too hot, I throw some wet smoking wood chips on the coals. The resulting smokey taste is a plus.

The harvest is in full swing now, Fran doesn't go into the garden w/o coming back with a double hand full of pole beans.


This will make almost sixteen butternut squash pies. Life is good.

Just picked ten butternut squash, about eight left in the garden. These ten made eight two cup bags. Each bag makes two butternut squash pies. Life is good.
