Almonds

When I smoke almonds, I do not like to put anything at all on them....but that could just be my preference. Also, I smoke at a very low temperature and bag or put them in a canning jar right after smoking.
They seem to develope more flavor over time.

Good luck and take pics.

I have only done the first on with tremendous results every time. Everyone that tried them loved them. Hope this is some help to you. I also smoked a while longer.

These are the recipes everyone went crazy over. Use any kind of nuts I like almonds best. The first recipe is a big hit with everyone!

Hot and Spicy Smoked Pecans

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Mix everything but the nuts and chilli powder in a bowl. When it's mixed well add nuts coating completely. Then add chilli powder. Put in tin foil pan and smoke for about 30 minutes. Stir them up every 10 minutes or so.
