Smoke-Roasted Rustic Root Vegetables
- 2 large carrots, cut into 2-inch chunks
- 2 medium unpeeled russet potatoes, cut into 2-inch chunks
- 2 medium unpeeled sweet potatoes, cut into 2-inch chunks
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
- fine sea salt & freshly ground black pepper
- wood chips
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, for garnish (optional)
- Toss the vegetables with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Place the mixture on an 8 x 12-inch piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil or in a disposable aluminum pan.
- Fill your charcoal chimney with briquets, set the chimney on the bottom grill grate, and light, or prepare a fire in your smoker.
- For a gas grill, turn half the burners to medium.
- When the coals are ready, dump them into the bottom of your grill, and spread them evenly across half.
- Scatter the wood chips on the hot coals or place them in a metal container as close as possible to a burner on a gas grill.
- Place the vegetables on the indirect-heat side. Close the lid.
- Smoke at 350u0b0F for 45 to 60 minutes or until the potatoes are tender and the vegetables have a good, smoky aroma.
- Transfer the vegetables to a platter, drizzle with a little more olive oil if desired, and garnish with the chopped parsley.
