Ingredients
Dry ingredients
- 2 boxes (16 cups/1 kg/2.2 lb) rice Chex cereal
- 1 box (8 cups/500 g/1.1 lb) wheat Chex cereal
- ⅔ box (5 cups/320 g/11 oz) Cheerios
- 1 bag (3 cups/250 g/8.8 oz) thin pretzels
- 1 lb (6 cups/450 g) peanuts
- 1 lb (6 cups/450 g) pecans
- 1 can (3 cups/250 g/8.8 oz) cashews
- Salt to taste
Sauce
- 3 sticks (375 g/13.2 oz) margarine
- Heaping ½ cup (150 g/5.3 oz) bacon grease
- 1¾–2 tablespoons garlic salt
- 2 tablespoons plus 1 dash Worcestershire sauce
- Heaping ½ teaspoon Accent seasoning (MSG)
- 2 heaping tablespoons peanut butter
Directions
- Melt and combine the sauce ingredients.
- Combine all dry ingredients except salt in a large canning pot.
- Sprinkle a little of the sauce mixture over dry ingredients, and shake well. Repeat until sauce is gone.
- Salt the mixture by sprinkling and shaking in the same way.
- Bake 1½–2 hours at 200 °F (95 °C) in covered canning pot.
- Remove frequently to shake.
Notes
Put the sauce in a canning jar, and punch several holes in the lid. Sprinkle by turning the jar upside down.
It took up to seven times of sprinkling and shaking to salt the mixture.
It is possible to substitute some vegetable oil for the bacon grease, but the result is less authentic.
