Chex Mix ?

Tom,
I'll be watching for that recipe,I like chex mix.

Actually as I have someone who wants to take it commercial I can't post the exact recipe.

BUT.

Just take the normal chex mix recipe and instead of adding liquid smoke, put it in the smoker, as hot as it will go.

Put in several shallow pans and toss frequently until dry. DON'T let any butter (if it's in your recipe) burn. That's bad.

We hope you'll remember all us little people,when you become rich and famouser.

By the way,if your hardrive goes down,I have an early copy.

Uh, TOM, if you have it why are you asking for it. TRYING to trap me

shhhhh, I know it's out there on the internet. If you find it. Only one little secret, but you knew what it was

I have an old hard copy ,from the old forum.

Just thought the forum might enjoy it with their adult beverages.

Well then I'll just make up a "new" version and let them have at it.

I'm confident it would still be good with a little round ball and some beverages.

I thunkt I saw one in the BBQ forum--may want to search over there. If you come up with something good, let us know.

Guys,
Will ya jest put Some version on here? Sheesh!

Is it time for kiss and tell yet?

OK

Thanks dls,
I had not ever seen a version with liquid smoke in it? And I can see how much better it might be in a smoker.I think a threade in a bbq forum about chex mix might be a first

my wife always makes "texas trash" at her family get togethers. What she puts in it is a closely guarded family secret. I do know there is bacon grease, because I get BLT's every time she makes it. Never thought about the smoking part. Would work in the FE. I would have to get involved in the process and maybe find out what she is doing.

the bacon grease is unique idea.Does it still have crunchies like chex,pretzels,peanuts in it???

It has all that stuff in it and is still crunchy. Like I said , I don't really know what all she puts in it. I know there is Tobasco, I think there might be a little cayenne, but I don't know.

Didn' get any this past Christmas. She went home with me to "West by God" and my Dad is doing the Ornish thing now. He used to devour the stuff, so she didn't want him to have the temptation.

Next time to get it will be this July. Gonna try to talk her into doing it on my FE. Will be able to help a little more then with the ingredients.

okay.I found some recipes on line with various small differences.The ones with bacon grease have like a Cup or two of it.One had a stick of butter and a cup or so of bacon grease. If you remember this Summer I will appreciate it.

You can take pretty much ANY of those recipes and smoke them. Look for the ones that have "liquid smoke" in them and just delete that ingredient.

I'm not sure how good this works in the smaller CS's. I did it in a 150 many times and it worked. I just opened the door a lot to let steam out.

I put it in shallow pans and stir it FREQUENTLY so that any butter/bacon/grease doesn't burn on the bottom.

Made this yesterday and it came out pretty good

1 C bacon grease
1 C oleo
3 T tabasco sauce
3 T worchestshire ? sauce
2 T accent
1 1/2 T garlic salt
1 box each rice, wheat corn chex
2 cans mixed nuts
1 bag pretzels

Melt the oleo, add b. grease, accent, T. sauce, W. sauce and mix it all together.

Put all the nuts, pretzels, chex.in a disposable full size alum. pan and pour the wet stuff over it. Mix thouroughly.

Put in FEC at 250 degrees for 1 hr. Mix ingredients every 15 minutes. I used 2 pans, transferring the mix from one to the other to help with the mixing.
