How To Make nana b's nuts and bolts (bits ‘n bites)

Step 1

Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Pour all dry ingredients into large turkey roaster and mix . In a small saucepan, melt butter and add Worchestershire sauce and spices, stirring well until spices are dissolved. Pour evenly over dry ingredients in a large turkey roaster, stir for at least five minutes, being sure to scoop sauce from bottom of pan into the dry ingredients so they are all well coated.

Step 2

Cover and bake for one hour, stirring every 15 minutes. Uncover and bake an additional hour, stirring at the half-hour mark. Cool and pack in airtight containers. (these do take a bit of time but are SO worth it!)
