SMOKED GARLIC NUTS

I just made a pan of these and I think the price of the smoker was worth it for this recipe alone. These are so much better than store bought smoked nuts, which taste like all chemicals compared to these guys. I have a large smoker so when I take the trouble to crank it up for a roast or something, I try to use up the leftover space for anything I can get my hands on that looks like it could use a good smokin'. I used hickory chips for these nuts but I would think they'd be just as good with mesquite, oak or apple. I'm really sorry I didn't triple the recipe and I will next time. This is a great recipe to use up space in your smoker and serve with cocktails to your guests while waiting for the main course to finish.

Categories     appetizer

Time 25m

Yield 2 1/2 cups spiced nuts

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons melted butter or olive oil
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons seasoning salt
1/2 teaspoon chipotle pepper powder
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 1/2 cups whole natural almonds

Steps:

  • In a mixing bowl, combine melted butter or oil, honey, sugar and all the seasonings. Make sure that any lumps of cayenne or cinnamon are broken down and stirred into the mix. The end result is a thick, sticky seasoning mixture. Add nuts and stir thoroughly to coat.
  • Place nuts on 1/2 of a 12-inch sheet of heavy-duty foil in a single layer. Fold over to make an envelope, pierce with a knife to make 3 (1-inch) slits. Place envelope on top grate of smoker and close. Smoke for 20 to 25 minutes, opening once to shake the envelope to stir it up.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, plump nuts for the best flavor and texture.
  • Be sure to rinse the nuts well before smoking them to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Soak the nuts in water for at least 30 minutes before smoking to help them absorb the smoke flavor.
  • Use a variety of wood chips to create different flavor profiles. Some good options include hickory, maple, and cherry.
  • Smoke the nuts at a low temperature (225-250 degrees Fahrenheit) for 1-2 hours, or until they are fragrant and slightly browned.
  • Let the nuts cool completely before storing them in an airtight container.

Conclusion:

Smoked garlic nuts are a delicious and versatile snack that can be enjoyed on their own or added to a variety of dishes. They are also a great way to use up leftover nuts.
