- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce or tamari
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the Traeger grill: Set your Traeger grill to 225°F (107°C) using hickory or oak pellets and allow it to come to temperature for a smoky flavor foundation.
- Prepare the mushrooms: In a large bowl, toss the torn lion’s mane mushrooms with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, and soy sauce to evenly coat and infuse them with seasoning.
- Arrange for smoking: Spread the seasoned mushrooms in a single layer on a grill-safe baking tray or grill mat, ensuring even exposure to the smoke and heat.
- Smoke the mushrooms: Place the tray on the grill and smoke the mushrooms for 45 minutes to 1 hour, stirring halfway through the cooking time to ensure even tenderness and to develop slightly crispy edges.
- Serve: Remove the smoked mushrooms from the grill, optionally garnish with fresh parsley, and serve warm as a smoky, flavorful dish.
