Boiled Peanuts

I always love to pull over to the side of the road on long family vacations and get a fresh bag of boiled peanuts. This is one treat you only find driving through the south!


Great for snacking on or as an appetizer at a summer BBQ

Boiled Peanuts

1 1/2 qts uncooked peanuts

1/2 cup salt

2 1/2 quarts water



Wash peanuts until water runs clear. Put peanuts, salt, and water in crock pot, cook on high for 5-7 hours. Add water as neccessary during cooking to keep peanuts covered. For saltier flavor turn crock pot off and let sit overnight.
