Title: Blazing Pistachios & more Snow
Post by: smokendevo on February 17, 2014, 01:09:41 PM
Giving them a few hours in the smoker. Running out of room for the snow and we are going to get another dump today. Just starting now.  >:(

Blazing Pistachios
From Seemore

Ingredients:
1 Tbsp butter
3 Tbsp pickling liquid from a jar of pickled jalapenos
3 Tbsp green Tabasco sauce
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp salt
2 C unshelled pistachio nuts

Directions:
Melt the butter in a saucepan, then add the pickling liquid, the Tabasco sauce, the Worcestershire sauce and the salt. Stir to blend, and then add the nuts.

Make sure the nuts are well coated, and then pour onto a Bradley rack with a high-temp screen. If you don’t have high temperature screens use the Bradley Jerky Racks, or line the bottom of the rack with cheese cloth.
Put in a preheated 225°F smoker. We smoked them for two hours with mesquite smoke.

OK so I did a little different from the recipe, did not want to be tied to the smoker wondering if they are burning so I went with a longer time frame. 150 with the   A-MAZE-N-TUBE-SMOKER  which took almost all afternoon to do. The result was just great. Just the way I like them.  :)
