Smoked Almonds

Smoked Almonds

Ingredients

1 pound almonds

2 tablespoons melted butter

1/2 tablespoon kosher salt

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 tsp chili pepper

Directions  

Pre heat your smoker to 225 ° F. While the smoker is pre-heating mix the melted butter with the salt, garlic powder and chili pepper. Add the Almonds and stir. Make sure the almonds are evenly covered. Divided the nuts evenly among 2  9×11 aluminum pans. Add to the smoker and smoke for 2 hours. Adding wood chips every 45 minutes. Use the wood chips of your choice when smoking. I like using Beech. Beech and Pecan are two of my favorites. Make sure vent is 3/4 open.  After 2 hours remove the Almonds. Cool and enjoy !
