Rolling a couple of tomatoes, peppers and onion in a super hot pan gives the salsa a nice restaurant style "fire roasted" flavor.  Remove when skins are 60% - 70% black.  Maybe something you could incorporate into this recipe.

I wonder about putting them in the smoker for a short time, might be worth a go?
