    Donthavafunnamekim,[p]From Smoke and Spice by The Jamisons:[p]1 Cup Black Olives
    1 Cup Green Olives
    2 Tbls EVOO
    2 Tbls White Wine
    2 minced Garlic Cloves
    3/4 Tsp dried Oregano
    cracked pepper to taste[p]Put olives in smoke-proof dish or make an aluminum foil tray. Add remaining ingredients. Smoke olives at 200-220 degrees until they absorb half the liquid...about 55 to 65 minutes.[p]I would recommend not using too much smoke as I'd think they's get bitter fairly easily. Just a guess though.
