Equipment

  • Grill or smoker
  • Hickory or pecan wood chips, chunks, or pellets
  • 9 by 13-inch foil pan

Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups raw mixed nuts
  • ¼ cup hot honey
  • 1 tablespoon butter melted
  • 1 teaspoon table salt

Instructions
 

  • Prepare a smoker or grill with a smoke box or smoke pouch using hickory or pecan for cooking at 225°F to 250°F.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the hot honey, melted butter, and salt.
  • Place the nuts in a large bowl and pour the honey mixture over it. Use a silicone spatula to stir well, so that each nut is coated.
  • Dump the nuts into a 9-by-13-inch foil pan and spread in a single layer.
  • Place the foil tray on the smoker or grill and smoke at 225°F to 250°F until golden and fragrant, about 1 ¼ hours. Replace wood chips or pellets as needed to maintain a steady stream of smoke.
  • Cool completely before serving.

Notes

  •  
  • Let the nuts cool completely in the foil pan before storing. If they stick together, gently break them apart with your hands.
  • Store the nuts in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 2 months.
  • This recipe is suitable for gluten-free and vegetarian diets.
