These tasty morsels are perfect for serving as an appetizer.

• Prepare a 225°F indirect fire in a smoker or grill. Add 3 to 4 water-soaked chunks of hickory wood to the fire.

• Sprinkle the dove breasts with smoked hickory salt. Wrap each breast half with ⅓ strip of bacon. Secure with a toothpick.

• Melt butter in a saucepan and stir in soy sauce. Brush mixture over dove breasts and place in the smoker. Smoke for about 1 to 2 hours, basting with butter mixture every 30 minutes.
