it's Jamie Dean back in the kitchen
0:02
and it's football season.
0:03
So today I'm working on one of our favorite snacks.
0:06
That's perfect for football season,
0:08
baseball season, basketball season, swimming season,
0:12
raking season, whatever season you got.
0:15
This is a perfect easy snack
0:16
for you and your family to enjoy.
0:19
Oh, I'm back in Bobby's house.
0:21
So it was nice to be a mom's for a little while,
0:22
but I'm back here in here in my brother's house.
0:24
I'm thankful to be anywhere these days,
0:26
I gotta be honest with you.
0:29
Here's our game day mix.
0:33
and we have Corn Chex.
0:35
Now you need six cups of your cereal.
0:38
So what I'm gonna do is split.
0:41
First thing I'm going to do is spill all this stuff that
0:43
Theresa put together.
0:47
So we're gonna go three
1:00
This is not rocket science.
1:03
I've got about seven cups in here, but that's all right.
1:07
We're gonna roast all this.
1:09
So I'm going to put all my dry ingredients
1:11
into this roasting pan we're gonna use.
1:15
Then next, I've got some pretzels.
1:18
I'm going to go about
1:19
(rustling and clattering)
1:22
three cups of pretzels.
1:24
If y'all want to use the ones that look like little bow
1:26
ties, you could do that.
1:28
This is what my kids like,
1:29
cause you can eat them like this.
1:34
I know y'all eat them that way too.
1:42
your favorite brand of cheese crackers.
1:45
I'm going to go two cups of cheese crackers.
1:54
And finally, we've got one cup of roasted peanuts.
1:59
Theresa's actually roasted these all for us.
2:01
So we're staying true to the recipe today.
2:03
And then I change everything as is usually the case.
2:10
- [Woman] Your Paula Dean's Son they expect that.
2:13
- Every recipe can be improved upon.
2:15
No recipe is ever finished.
2:19
I'm just gonna mix this up a little bit.
2:22
Now the good thing about this recipe y'all
2:24
is if you could put this in an airtight,
2:26
like a Tupperware or something.
2:27
This stays really good for about a week.
2:30
So you can make it for Thursday night football,
2:33
Saturday football, Sunday football,
2:34
and Monday night football.
2:36
Look at that you got four days of football
2:39
Okay, we need some wet ingredients.
2:41
I'm gonna check my paper cause I want to get these right.
2:44
This is, oh, let me see how much this is.
2:47
This is one stick of melted butter.
2:50
This is half a cup of butter.
2:53
we're going to put two tablespoons whatthischair sauce
2:57
Two tablespoons of Worcestershire Sauce.
3:01
We've got one package of ranch dressing mix,
3:05
two teaspoons of smoked paprika and a little bit of salt.
3:09
So we've got our butter melted.
3:13
We're going to go two tables of Worcestershire
3:16
Worcestershire is not only hard to say.
3:18
Sometimes it's kind of hard to figure out
3:20
what you want to put it in.
3:21
It's got a very distinct flavor.
3:23
And once you find a good spot for Worcestershire,
3:26
it adds awesome flavor.
3:30
And we're going to do two teaspoons.
3:33
This is smoked paprika
3:42
We got a Doc Dash of Hot Sauce.
3:44
That's gonna go in here.
3:52
We're going to do a little bit of salt.
3:55
- [Woman] Don't forget the ranch dressing...
3:56
- [Jamie] Just a pinch.
3:59
And one ounce of dry ranch dressing.
4:05
- [Jamie] It's going to be good.
4:06
I've had this a million times.
4:09
We're gonna mix this up.
4:16
And then we're going to pour this
4:17
kind of distributed around
4:21
our snack mix, as best as we can.
4:26
Paying attention to the corners and the edges
4:32
It smells really good already.
4:33
I love Worcestershire Sauce.
4:38
- [Jamie] And then we're going toss it
4:41
(crunching & mixing noise)
4:46
(crunching & mixing noise)
4:51
(crunching & mixing noise)
4:56
(crunching & mixing noise)
5:02
- [Jamie] Y'all, don't be concerned
5:03
if you see some dry pieces down in here.
5:05
Because we're going to be stirring this
5:08
while baking it at 250.
5:12
So I promise you that all this sauce
5:14
is going to touch all these things before it's over with.
5:17
So we're going to cook it for one hour.
5:19
Stirring every 15 minutes.
5:22
You got to stir every 15 minutes.
5:23
You don't want the top or the bottom chard.
5:25
So it's going to give it a nice little toss
5:34
And when we come back, you'll get to see me eat.
5:39
- 15 minutes Y'all, let's see what's cooking.
5:44
- Um hm, see how the top's browning a little bit?
5:47
Make sure you give this a good twist.
5:58
- [Jamie] It smells like football season.
6:03
- [Jamie] 15 minutes.
6:08
Starting to brown up nice.
6:11
Just get a little bit of paper towel or something.
6:25
we've gone through our hour
6:28
I'm going to quit talking
6:29
because I don't want to talk over this sound.
6:31
But turn it one more time.
6:32
(crunchy and mixing noise)
6:35
(crunchy and mixing noise)
6:37
- [Woman} It smells so good.
6:39
(crunchy and mixing noise)
6:43
(crunchy and mixing noise)
6:47
- [Jamie] I really do love this little recipe.
6:51
Every family has some kind of thing they
6:54
You know at the holidays
6:56
you do it with a powdered sugar.
6:58
And just everybody's got a dry cracker snack mix
7:00
that you can put together.
7:02
The Worcestershire really lends itself to this.
7:06
So if you want to substitute a different kind of cereal,
7:08
or if you want to do different kinds of pretzels,
7:11
There's really no rules.
7:12
Y'all know. If you're in the kitchen with me,
7:14
I say, find a good recipe
7:15
and then change it any way you want to
7:18
So do the same thing here.
7:19
But this batch here, right here, is going with me
7:22
to Athens, Georgia this weekend.
7:24
We got a football game, I'm taking the boys.
7:27
Hold up, I got a top for it.
7:31
Cause I don't want any condensation in here.
7:33
What you really want is a snappy crunchy snack.
7:36
You don't want an old soggy mess.
7:38
So as soon as this cools off,
7:40
I'll be able to snap the top on here.
7:43
Carry it right out the door.
7:44
This is a really fun snack mix.
7:46
It's always good to have good snacks around no matter
7:48
what the sport or the time of the year.
7:50
I hope your family enjoys this one.
7:52
I'll see you all around the kitchen.
7:54
Thanks for tuning in.
