Carolina Smokin' Hot Stachios..
« Reply #-1 on: June 17, 2012, 01:06:39 PM »

Trying something a little different this time.

Equal parts (as in 1 heaping cup, I ran out of Wooster, so I just added more of these to compensate) Bandana's BBQ "Carolina" sauce, cup of Jap juice, 3 pounds of those O-So-Wonderful pistachios..




And 5T of melted butter than the MAK was keeping warm. Looks like 100 milliliters for our Metrically-inclined friends.   ;)    (coffee is for me)




Dump dump dump.



Gloves on, time to get interactive...


I picked up some pizza screens a while back, let's see how well they work.  I bent up the edges to make a kinda-sorta-basket.




Fits like a glove!




Lid down, cruising at 200° (93.3333333° C!).  We'll check back at 1600 hours..

I like where this is heading. Pistachios are one of my favorite things.

This is a spin on 'Blazin Pistachios' from the Bradley Smoker Forum.

That one looks like this:

Quote
1 cup of green Tabasco
1 cup of jap juice
5 tbsps of melted butter
1 1/2 tsps of salt
5 tbsps of worcestershire
3 pounds of pistachios
Mix well and smoke until dry.

Great flavor, and the green Tabasco is very mild.

They are addicting..

Gave it a 180° spin.




Lid down and we'll go back in 2 more.

Go for it!  It is so easy...   And they are addicting.

Top of the jar of jalas with white vinegar after you dump the cup of juice out.   1 week later - bingo - pickled jala juice.
When they turn to mush, they've given up the ghost and you can toss them out.

I've been using that big jug since late last summer.   ;)

Done and Done.   Some of these near the edge of the drip pan got slightly scorched.





Parked in a cool oven now with the door cracked open.

They do look tasty....I know it sounds crazy ( the norm for me ;) ) but, I think these would taste great once shelled - on top of home made vanilla ice cream...

Those Looks Awesome Squirt. Don't forget the kicked up Cashews

Kicked up Cashews

1T Butter
4T Green Tabasco
2T Starnes BBQ Sauce (or other HOT and Spicy BBQ Sauce)
2T Worcestershire
3C Cashews
Bacon is the Crack Cocaine of the Food World.

Be careful about calling yourself and EXPERT! An ex is a has-been, and a spurt is a drip under pressure!
