Thanks for sharing that. I've done butter with some almonds before and it seemed to work well so I'll try it with the cashews next. I haven't tried heating them all up in a wok before so maybe that is the difference maker.
Hello,
Most recipes I've seen on here involve tossing cashews, almonds, etc with olive oil prior to mixing in the spices. However after a couple days the spices come right off and pool up at the bottom of the bag/tin.
Are there better sticking agents than olive oil? Does butter work better...
Hey folks,
Has anyone here ever tried smoking corn nuts? Did a quick search and I can't seem to find anything. I don't think i'd do much in the way of giving it extra flavors like BBQ or buffalo sauce, etc. I think just a nice simple cold smoke with hickory or pecan would add a really...
All good information. Thank you guys for chiming in. So, we've determined that I used WAY too much curing salt. Should I be worried about eating this bacon now? Everything I've read says it's dangerous to use too much. I ate two slices this morning and feel fine but I'm wondering if I...

Lots of good resources here, you'll get a ton of new ideas and recipes to try. Have you decided on what you're going to smoke first?
Hey guys,
I tried something a little different last night and I'm trying to figure out what the deal is. I smoked up some whole chicken wings in the gas smoker last night for a couple hours until they looked done. Then, in an attempt to crisp up the skin (chicken skin in the smoker almost...
My girlfriend got me this "Man Crate" for valentines day. It included the porkbelly, all the seasonings, and a pound of their own bacon. Pretty awesome: http://www.mancrates.com/projects/bacon-curing-kit
As for a salt test? I don't have any test other than my own tastebuds, but it does...
My girlfriend surprised me with a tender-belly bacon kit for valentines day. The kit came with a 4lb pork belly along with the cure/rub mixture. If you guys haven't tried making your own home-made bacon yet I highly encourage you to do so. I don't care that it takes a week to sit in the dry...
