Title: Whiskey & Honey Pistachios
Post by: MoHuka on August 05, 2013, 09:44:55 AM

Decided to experiment with some of the Iranian Pistachios I brought back from Saudi.  I mixed up some cheap local whiskey with a little honey..thinking the honey would help it adhere to the nuts.  Put all in a covered pan and tossed the nuts in the mixture.  After thoroughly covered I placed on cheese cloth on top of frog mats in the Bradley smoker and gave them 2 hours of Whiskey-Oak wood at 240 degrees.

I can't say they have a distinctive whiskey taste, or honey taste but they are phenomenal....a wonderful smokey roasted taste...did a second batch the next day

Here are the players

That sounds like a good combo!

I wonder how they would taste with Jack Daniels Tenessee Honey?
