Beer Boiled Peanuts

  • 1

Ingredients

  • 1 lb Raw or Green Peanuts
  • 1/4-1/3 cup Salt
  • 2 tablespoons Cajun Seasoning
  • 1/2 cup IPA Beer
  • Water

Preparation

Step 1


Rinse Peanuts until water run clear. Soak Peanuts in water for 30 minutes. Rinse.

Add Peanuts, Salt, Cajun Spice, and Beer to large pot or slow cooker. Add water to cover.

Stove: Boil for 3-6 hours or until desired tenderness (I like mine a little mussy so I cooked them for 6 hours)

Slow cooker: Cook on high 12-16 hours.

Green Peanuts will cook faster than raw. The peanuts are done with they are no longer crunchy. I like mine very soft.
