This recipe hails straight from the comments section of Cheers to Sobriety! (Pears in Red Wine Sauce). See what happens when you comment, people?! So a big shout out and thank you to "Anonymous" a.k.a. Mike P. (a fellow Big 10er from IU) for giving us this tailgating treat. To show my gratitude, I will resist the overwhelming urge to make inappropriate yet hilarious jokes about how our friendship almost ended in a restraining order. Good times.
Beer Nuts*
Ingredients:1 lb salted, roasted peanuts (no honey roasted, clashes with beer)
2 cans beer (a real man beer...no light beer here!)
1 cp sugar
2 tb vanilla extract
Directions: (serves 4 during summer, 2 during football season)
1. Bring all ingredients, besides peanuts, to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce heat and simmer until liquid is reduced by half. Add peanuts and let simmer an additional 10 minutes. Remove from saucepan, lay out on a foil-lined pan, and let cool.

Let's just make it clear who the restraining order was against. I had pen to the paper that would have inked a deal allowing you no closer than Casa Grande. Alls I needed was it notarized by Sheriff Joe but he was out of the office til the following Monday. Whatever, just consider yourself lucky...
ReplyDeleteConsider YOURSELF lucky that I don't ask you for proof of citizenship there in Arizona. Come at me Mike...I'll have you deported back to Indiana faster than you can say "Hoosiers".
ReplyDeleteHmm..at least I THINK that's how it's supposed to work around there...
