  • Ah Nuts!

    I dont usualy have the chance to post here very often, but I do want to contribute a simple smoked almond recipe. Im always smoking almonds and other snack foods and tend to do large misc smokes where I will combine many things at once.
    Peppers, veggies, plain paprika and some sugars to do some smoke infusion stuff.

    Here it is:

    2lbs raw almonds
    1/2 cup of homemade BBQ sauce
    1/4 cup honey
    2 tbsp canola oil
    1 tbsp unsalted butter softened
    1 tbsp (Franks) Red Hot cayenne sauce
    1 tbsp brown sugar
    2 tsp salt
    2 tsp ground black pepper
    1/2 tsp Granulated garlic powder
    1/2 tsp Onion powder
    pinch of ground rosemary

    Smoker @ 225 deg
    2 hrs

    In a medium sized mixing bowl place the marinade ingredients and mix well.
    I like to warm the marinade a bit in the microwave to get the sugars to dissolve a bit. Put nuts in bowl and mix by hand making sure to cover them well with the marinade.
    "I find that smoking these for 2 hrs makes a nice crunchy nut and heavy marinades dont leave the nuts sticky" Yea I know, here comes the joke-"nobody likes sticky nuts"
    For the wood, I started with whiskey soaked oak and mixed in apple and finished with apple wood.


    Thought i might also share some pics from last nights dinner of a Mad Hunky brined smoked chicken n taters

    BTW-Wife brought 1 lb of the almonds to work this morning, she said they were gone by 9am

        Love smoked almonds and this sounds pretty good. I got everything but Franks RH on hand. Would regular tobasco or Sriracha work do you think?

          Sounds really good, never have tried smoking any nuts. Been on the list for a while just never got around to it but you're making me wish I had.

          I think using sriracha would be a great idea!

            Very nice!~~~

            Have done some nuts, usually mix them up a bit with 4-5 different kinds. Always been a hit. Gonna try yours so thanks for postin'!

            My best asset however is the inspiration from the members on this forum.

              I have done it with Tapatio and Tabasco both, they work great!
              Did some with habanero sauce once for a friend that likes a burner and he thought they were awesome!
              Walnuts and pecans are always a huge hit too

                I copied this down for next time I make some too. I did the ones by Capt Dan? I think? They were the mixed nuts recipe. Everyone loved them. This recipe looks good too so I am going to give it a go. Thanks for posting it!
                I rub it every chance I get!
