Ingredients

Scale

4 Tablespoons butter
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey
2 tablespoons hot pepper sauce (more or less to taste)
1/2 – 1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
4 cups (about 1 lb.) pecan halves

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 300 F. Get out a jelly roll pan and spray it with cooking spray.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter, then stir in the sugar, Jack Daniel’s, hot pepper sauce, salt and garlic. Stir to mix. Bring to a boil, reduce heat a bit and let bubble for 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
Remove from heat and stir in the pecans, tossing to coat them all in the yummy sauce. Pour the pecans onto the jelly roll pan and spread them out to a single layer. Bake at 300 F for about 30 -45 minutes or until the nuts are crunchy, stirring every 10 minutes or so. Let cool, then store in an airtight container.
