Smoked Nuts
This is a dedicated to Gary Simmons, aka. Scarbelly
RIP Gary, you will never be forgotten
First I started of by getting my nuts sweaty.
I am starting off with cashews.
After the nuts are tossed around and start sweating, I add the rub, this is Chipotle Powder and a few pinches of coarse salt, sea salt is preferred.
Next up is the Peanuts, same method as above.
Side by side ready to be cold smoked, these would be ok hot smoked as well but I preferred the cold smoke. These will be smoked using maple in the AMNPS
This is after they have been cold smoked several hours.
The second batch of nuts were done the same way as above but using my Pork Rub.
Ingredients
1/3 cup coarse salt (kosher or sea)
1-1/2 cup (packed) Brown Sugar
1-1/4 cup paprika
1 Tbsp freshly coarse ground black pepper
2 Tbsp garlic powder
¼ cup dried onion flakes
¼ cup onion powder
1 tsp cayenne pepper
2 tsp chili powder
2 tsp coriander
1 Tbsp rosemary
The nuts are vacuum sealed with some air in the bag.
Samples were given to my neighbor for testing and he preferred the Sweet (Rub)
I want them to sit a few weeks before I test them out.
Finally got to test these out. Awesome!
