Bier Meister Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 crispy..... i do very little smoking, so was hoping one of our resident smokers would give input. do you have a smoker, or would you have to do it in a standard oven?

crispirons Posted February 1, 2007 Author Share Posted February 1, 2007 nice comments smarta$$es. pretty funny. actually though, i'm thinking its just a liquid or something that you coat them with and bake them for a while. not sure. maybe someone else will stop by and know.

twiley Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 (edited) It's really easy. Melt some butter. Throw the almonds into them and coat generously. Bring your smoker up to about 300 but leave the bottom pan empty - no water like typical smoking. Remove from butter - Pour almonds into aluminum pan on top grate. Throw on some soaked wood to get some good smoke. Let smoke for about 30 minutes then season with salt or creole seasoning. Edit: shake the pan around while smoking too.

Bier Meister Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Salted Smoked Almonds. Here’s how to make salted smoked almonds or other nuts. You can customize this recipe by adding different spices and seasonings after smoking the nuts. Smoked nuts make a great treat and are a smoked food favorite that can be done in any food smoker. INGREDIENTS: · 2 cups whole almonds (not roasted) · 1 TBSP melted butter or olive oil · Fine-grain table salt, or popcorn salt to taste · 1 SmokePistol™ hickory, mesquite or pecan smoke wood cartridge PREPARATION and HOW TO SMOKE NUTS: Place the water in your food or meat smoker to deflect the heat but do NOT use water. Heat smoker to 300 degrees F and start the SmokePistol™ wood cartridge smoking. In a mixing bowl, combine melted butter or oil with almonds and mix thoroughly to coat. Pour the nuts onto a disposable 12" round foil pan, spreading into a single layer. Place the pan on the top grill or the smoker and smoke nuts for about 20 – 30 minutes stirring several times to ensure even smoking. After the nuts are smoked, sprinkle smoked nuts with salt or other seasoning. Cajun smoked nuts can be made by sprinkling smoked nuts with Cajun seasoning or a mixture of cayenne pepper, salt, pepper and onion powder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
