Smokey S’mores

S’mores are the classic campfire treat! Picture yourself outdoors, perhaps after a long day of hiking. You’ve finished whatever prepared or dehydrated food you brought, and with the graham crackers, chocolate, and marshmallows in your pack, you use the remaining flames to create a treat that’s simultaneously sweet, slightly smoky, and crunchy-yet-gooey.

In more recent years, adults have started realizing how special this relatively simple dessert is, both in showing their children how to make it and attempting to create it from home without a campfire. All it requires is a few classic ingredients, from smooth milk chocolate to marshmallows ready to toast and graham crackers to hold it all together. Our recipe makes use of the charcoal grill or smoker you own and involves a Flame Boss Controller and WiFi Thermometer, ensuring you get the precise temperature for the perfectly toasted marshmallow.

This recipe also addresses the one downside of making s’mores around the campfire. Ordinarily, you’ve got to cook each one at a time. While fun, it can be a challenge when you’re serving a whole group. So, this recipe makes use of the equipment you already own, to create a familiar and always-appreciated dessert for your family or any guests you have over. Let’s get started!
