Orange Chipotle Spiced Pecans

Post by mr x » Fri May 13, 2011 11:23 pm

These things are easy to make and insanely addictive. They didn't last 3 hours. I couldn't stop eating them. :crazy:

Definitely going to have to make a batch of these for UFC 130 to go with the blood orange weizen that I bottled yesterday.

You betcha. Rarely miss an event including Strikeforce, Bellator, and most of the larger Canadian promotions (XFC, MFC, etc.).

Been to any of the events in Halifax? Me and some buddies usually go to kokomos for UFC, its a pretty good spot to watch it. We used to go to Boston Pizza in Bayers Lake but they stopped showing them.

I'm in Amherst, so my man cave in the basement is the usual venue for most PPV's.

Glad you enjoyed them. They're such a great snack. I've gotten quite a few of my friends addicted to them.

I just made some of these, but this time I used chopped chipotle and adobo sauce in place of the dried. Anyone thinking to do the same I would advise doubling the wet from the dry in the recipe, its just not nearly as strong with only 1 tbsp.
