i recently ran out of tastefully simple brand pomegranate chipotle bbq sauce. it's delicious on plain grilled chicken and pork chops, so i looked into getting another bottle online. with shipping and tax, a small 8 oz. bottle would cost $16.50!!!
so, i looked up several pomegranate based sauces, and figured i could add my own mango and chipotles to create my own sauce.
unfortunately, i discovered a small can of cipotles costs around $5. in order to keep the cost down for what i hope will be an equivalent or better sauce than tastefully simple's, i decided i would smoke my own peppers and give them a try.
i'm still taking in loads of hot peppers (hungarian hot wax, thai bird, hot cherry, and cayenne), so i was wondering if anyone had experience smoking various types of peppers?
how long, how hot, what types of wood are best?

if this works out, i'll take pics and post a recipe. believe me, this is a great sauce on otherwise boring plian grilled food.
