Boiled Peanuts .....

[Olf Art]

Hey y'all .... just found something you might like. In the produce section over at Publics they have some two pound bags of boiled peanuts from a company that calls themselves Hardy Farms. They're in a green bag, and I think they're pretty good to be so handy. If you're wanting to boil up a few for the Nascar on Sunday, or to take to the camp, they're not bad ...... clean and decent size, and they're American grown.
I boiled up a pot for about an hour additional this morning (I like em tender) with a little more salt and a little Cholula and they're not bad at all. The bag says they're made from green peanuts too, and I think that's probably right. :thumbleft:

Ken, I've been ordering from Hardy farms for about 5 years now. I get 20 pounds every year. They are dug, washed and shipped to me. Man you know that I know about peanuts. lol

Hugh, I was really impressed with them ...... they'd be pricey if you wanted to boil them up to sell, but the quality of the bags we bought was real good. A two pound bag can be ready in a jiffy, and it's a nice batch for most occasions. I'm gonna try a bag in the crock pot next.

Waldron or Silers sells bushels of peanuts just add 2 boxes of salt cook and let sit about an hour, bag'em and freeze.

Dudley, thanks for the phone call this morning. Do you add any other seasoning when you boil em up?

 

[dudley]

No just lots of salt.

The last batch I tried of those Hardy Farms peanuts I did 'em in the crock pot ..... all night on 'low' and a lot more salt like Dudley said. Perfect. :thumbleft:

I like to get mine here locally when fresh dug, before they've had a chance to dry completely. Buy them right of the farm cart or already cleaned. Got spoiled when we lived up in Chipley, my neighbor would let us know when he'd be turning the first row alongside our pasture, and would let the families in the area have at it.

My favorite recipe is simple.... SALT, fresh garlic, and Datil Peppers (or sauce) and using a Pressure Cooker !!!

Diamond Jim, you could probably use fresh Datil peppers for snack food. I can't do it, bro. :lol: Our son can go into a wing house, order the hottest thing on the menu, and then dump about a half bottle of hot sauce on top of that before he eats. I'll tell ya' quick .... I ain't tough enough to run with you boys!!
