Directions: |
Directions:Mix all the cereals and nuts together, mixing well with your hands in a very large container. I use a large enamel pan used for canning. Melt margarine or butter and bacon drippings. Add the seasonings and stir well. Heat until mixed but do not boil. Slowly pour the butter/seasonings mixture over the cereals/nuts, stirring often with a large wooden spoon. Be gentle with the stirring, as you do not want to crush the cereals. Try to coat the cereals evenly. Bake uncovered in a 250º oven for 2-3 hours, stirring every 30 minutes from the bottom to the top with the large wooden spoon. When the gloss of the butter is off the cereal then you will know it is done. You don't want the cereals to be soggy. Cool and store in air-tight containers or Zip-Lok bags. |

Personal
Notes: The base of this recipe came from talk show host Steve Gill's Mom. However, I changed up some of the cereals, most of the spices, and added LOTS of Worcestershire Sauce. WARNING!!! This Chex Mix is addictive.
