Instructions

Directions For Making Weber Kettle & Cast Iron Skillet Blueberry Crumble

  • Set up your Weber Kettle for indirect smoking – Fill your charcoal chimney fire starter with charcoal briquettes, and when ready, empty the chimney in the center of the charcoal grate. With tongs, move the charcoal to both sides of the Weber Kettle, creating two equal piles. Add three more charcoal briquets and one piece of wood to each pile.
  • For the filling, mix the blueberries with the lemon juice and lemon zest – In a large bowl, thoroughly mix together the blueberries with the lemon juice and lemon zest.
  • Combine the rest of the filling ingredients with the blueberries – In a small bowl combine the flour, sugar and cinnamon, then pour over the blueberries and thoroughly mix together. Rub the cast iron skillet with butter and pour the blueberries into the skillet.
  • For the crumble topping, combine in a food processor – Place the flour, sugar, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon in a food processor and pulse a few times to combine. Add the cold butter and pulse the food processor until the butter is the size of peas.
  • Place the topping mixture in a bowl – Place the crumble topping mixture in a bowl and add the oats and half of the almond. Mix them together with your hands to make a chunky topping.
  • Spread the crumble topping over the blueberries – In the cast iron skillet, using your hands, evenly spread the crumble topping over the blueberries.
  • Place the cast iron skillet on the Weber Kettle – Place the cast iron skillet in the center of the Weber Kettle and close the lid. Cook the blueberry crumble for approximately 40 minutes. Add more charcoal briquets to both piles of coals as the coals burn down, if necessary.
  • Sauté the remaining almonds – In a small skillet, add a tablespoon of butter and sauté the remaining almonds until golden brown. After the crumble has smoked for 30 minutes, sprinkle the sautéed almonds on top of the crumble. Continue smoking for another 10 minutes.
  • How do you know when the blueberry crumble is done? – The blueberry crumble is finished cooking when the blueberries are bubbling around the edges of the skillet, and the crumble topping is golden brown and firm to the tough. Push a butter knife in the center of the blueberry crumble, and if it comes out hot to the touch, then it is cooked through.
  • Remove the cast iron skillet from the Weber Kettle – With oven mitts, carefully remove the cast iron skillet to your stovetop in the kitchen and let it rest for at least 15 minutes. Be very careful, as it will be super hot!
