Smoked Cheddar & Pepper Rolls (for the NEPAS smokeout)

[deb415611]

It was wet & nasty out this morning so I decided to start my smokeout contributions...

I made three batches of rolls - white using Peter Reinhart's Italian bread recipe,  whole wheat (using recipe below subbing white whole wheat flour for 1/2 the white and some Smoked Cheddar & Pepper Rolls

I started out with a triple batch of this recipe then added 1 lb of Cabot xtra-sharp Cheddar that I smoked back in November(1/2 grated & 1/2 diced).  Soaked some dried jalapenos, dried red & green pepper in a little water - drained them, threw them in the little food processor with some red pepper for a quick process then into the dough.  Also a little onion powder and some toasted dried minced onion.....   

Came out looking like:

I've gotta say Deb - you've got some nice looking buns there.

I meant to add in the post above...  the burger bun recipe that I used is incredibly easy and can be made without a mixer.  It's a throw everything in the bowl, mix together and then knead. 

Don't make a triple batch unless you have a 6 qt mixer (and maybe not even then, mine is sounding funky)
