Will it BBQ? Cashews!
In this segment we pose the question and the answer to Will it BBQ? So much more than just hamburgers, hot dogs, and other meats can be BBQ'd, Grilled, or Smoked. And, this is where we try out unique ideas for cooking on a grill or smoker. This week we are BBQ'ing Cashews and letting you know if it will BBQ or not!

Ingredients
Cashew Pieces
Olive OilUtensils Needed
Non-Stick Mesh Baskets
Flip Professional Smoke BoxInstructions
Place cashews in a bowl and coat evenly with olive oil, or oil of your choice. Now sprinkle on your seasoning of choice. We decided to try Salt and Vinegar Wingshake and the Cajun Rub. Now lay them out on a single level of a Non-Stick Mesh Basket, or another non-stick surface, and place in your smoking chamber as far from the smoke as possible. We wanted to have the Cashews retain as much of the creaminess as possible so we decided to cold smoke these. We used the Flip Professional Smoke Box and some Hickory Wood Chips to provide smoke but add as little heat as possible.So, Will it BBQ?
This would be a definite yes. The two different flavors offered wildly different tastes but both were delicious. The Salt and Vinegar ones had more upfront taste and they had a nice caramelized style coating on them from what little heat did get to them. The Cajun ones didn’t have a strong taste at first but had a very pleasant warmth to them that worked well with the smoke and the creaminess of the cashews. Since we did this a week ago I have already made a large batch of this at my house and my wife and I love them!

Jonathon I don’t think my smoker is going to get any down time when I get back from my hunting trip with all the things I want to try from this sight.

calldoctoday The chamber seems to work on everything. We use the Foodsaver on quick seal items that we are going to use fast and not have to worry about in the freezer. That was the worst thing we had with the Foodsaver bags, some tended to loose their seal over time in the freezer. I love the chamber sealer now that we have it, it is really versatile once you get the hang of it. Fast learning curve.

Dr_Pain Vacmaster VP215 found it for under 1K and shipped free. That was a year ago, price has probably gone up since they are foreign made

Just thought you all might like to see what one walnut tree will put out. We are really going nuts, literally. We have nuts drying under the deck, and in the basement, next to the pellet stove as well. We were drying them on the deck, but our pacific northwest weather has returned with rain and cold. Currently it’s 43 degree’s and pouring down rain here and snow in the mountains.
johnsbrewhouse congrats. That’s a lot of nuts

blackbetty61 if you were making the baked snack mix a person could add liquid smoke but I think you are asking about just smoking them as is

blackbetty61 You can use 1/4" or 1/8" hardware cloth to, just flatten it out and lay it on the grill. It cheap and zinc plated usually, lasts a long time when not exposed to heavy heat.

johnsbrewhouse That is amazing. When I was a little kid & we lived on the farm, we had a number of English Walnut trees. My Dad & I would crack them & load the back of his 39 pickup (it may have been a 34) several times & take them to the bakery. That was a whole lot of cracking & delivering.

calldoctoday That’s why the kid does it, he has to earn his keep for still living at home.

blackbetty61 It is an interesting idea, we used cheese puffs a while ago in the |Nacho-Cheese-Flavored-Jerky-Snack-Stick-Seasoning and it was good but messed with the texture too much. I will add cheese-its to the list of Will It BBQ
Dr_Pain Pre-Thanks sale comes out next Monday, it wont be in that one BUT look to the THanksBlackMonday Sale. THAT should be a big one for Walton’s branded equipment.
