Pumpkin seeds

[LegoMySearwood]

The fam and I just finished carving our pumpkins and I collected some of the seeds. What are some good smoked pumpkin seed recipes?

Meathead's got a good trail mix recipe using pumpkin seeds:

and a guide to roasting nuts which could be applied to pumpkin seeds.

or you could just cut to the chase and use Hey Grill Hey's recipe for Smoky BBQ Pumpkin Seeds:

We do ours in the oven at 300F. Tossed in clarified butter, on a cookie sheet, shake around half way through.
If you wanted to smoke them I would do it that way.

I used the smoked recipe. They turned out okay. I liked them but the family is not a fan. Thanks Kathryn.

This is the recipe that my wife has used for years, she uses raw in the shell from Gerbs. Please forgive the link, it is from a recipe program that we use. And give no mind to the extra gobbly gook on the page.

That seems like a lot of pink salt for just pumpkin seeds. Do you Himalayan pink salt or curing salt? To me “pink salt” is curing salt.

[Mike981]

SheilaAnn You are correct, Himalayan pink salt.

I should have mentioned before, that I like the seeds cooked a little more than my wife. She prefers them chewier, as I like more of a crunch.
