Boiled Peanuts....

[charlottenian]

Are wonderful, tried some this weekend and got hooked

[Darth Biscuit]

My old boss... who is an Irish immigrant, tried these for the first time back when I worked for him... he told me:

"I kinda liked 'em, but the shells were too crunchy..."

Yes, he ate them shells and all...

He was a Panthers fan, but that's about all he got right.

OK... I've never had them fried... but I can't see eating the shell...

I love boiled (bawled) peanuts... they are awesome... but it also depends on who cooks them too... some people don't know how.

I do NOT ever eat them hot, that's nasty... gotta eat 'em cold.

I eat the shells after I boil them. You just have to boil them for a while.

Stopping at Sheffields in Ocean Isle Beach for boiled peanuts was a tradition when I was a child. I hated boiled peanuts at the time so my father would buy me a pepsi (glass bottle of course) and pour shelled peanuts in the bottle. I don't know where the hell this came fom, but for some reason I liked it. Haven't done it in a long time - might have to give that a go next time I see Pepsi in a glass bottle.

:ee:

They are SOOOOOO much better hot. My gf's dad always gets some at a flea market that are awesome. I think the guy hasn't cleaned the pot in 20+ years.

Hot boiled peanuts in the winter, cold ones in the summer. Duh.

[Darth Biscuit]

I don't like them hot anytime...

There was this old guy that always sat out in front of the Piggly Wiggly in my home town when I was growing up, his name was Saul and he had to be about 85 when I was 10 or so... he sold them out of a cooler in the bed of his pickup. Man those things were awesome.
