This is the newest product I've put on the smoker.  The picture shows a mat that I purchased for smoking items that migh fall through the grate.  For example: oysters and now nuts.  These are pecans and almonds.  As recommended hot smoking them at about 250 F for about an hour seemed to be the correct answer.  Doused with maple syrup and an egg white the first try was a victory.  The next iterations will include versions of the winter spices: Cinnamon and the like, poultry seasoning and something with a cajun flare.
