3 Delicious Smoked Stuffed Mushrooms Recipe

Stuffed mushrooms can be a hit or miss when trying to get the filling and mushrooms to both cook evenly and at the same rate. Sometimes the mushrooms dry out before the filling is fully cooked through.

Other times, the filling is bubbling and the mushrooms are not fully cooked. One way to get around this is to slow cook stuffed mushrooms in your Masterbuilt Smoker.

The mushrooms you choose to stuff can make a difference. I have found that large white button mushrooms work very well. Baby bellas or creminis are generally a bit smaller, but they still have a deep bowl in the cap for filling.

These little gems also have an earthy flavor when smoked. When using large portobello mushrooms, it is a good idea to scrape out the gills for more interior space. Think of portobellos as more of a saucer that holds the filling.

The 3 recipes described in this article use the different mushrooms mentioned above. The first recipe is a classic stuffed button mushroom with breadcrumbs and cheese. The second recipe is a rich crab meat and cream cheese filling for cremini mushrooms. These are one bite treats. The third recipe uses portobello mushrooms as a vehicle for sausage and cheese. This one is almost like a mushroom based pizza. It is also gluten free.

Smoked stuffed mushrooms are often served all by themselves. These are little flavor bombs that are perfect as a dinner appetizer or a party hors d’oeuvre. Large portobello stuffed mushrooms can be served as a main dish with a side salad and some couscous or rice.

Other Ideas for Smoked Stuffed Mushrooms

You can pretty much stuff mushrooms with anything that will hold up in the smoker. The key is that you do need a little fat of some sort to impart moisture. If you are vegan, that can be extra virgin olive oil or coconut oil. Not vegan – go for the butter, ghee, and fatty cheeses.

Here are some additional ideas:

• Vegan stuffed mushrooms with walnuts, brown rice, and oil packed sun dried tomatoes
• Paleo stuffed mushrooms with shrimp and chorizo
• Keto Greek stuffed mushrooms with spinach, feta cheese, kalamata olives and fresh herbs
• Vegetarian bean chili stuffed mushrooms topped with cheddar cheese
• Brie and bacon stuffed mushrooms
• Onion soup style stuffed mushrooms topped with bread crumbs and gruyere cheese
• Escargot stuffed mushrooms with garlicky parsley butter (this might be my favorite)
