2 cups whole pecans
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
2 teaspoons smoked sweet paprika
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

Line the bottom of the pot with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Fill the bottom with the drained wood chips. Top with the pasta pot insert or the steamer basket. Place the pecans in the insert. Turn the heat to medium-high. As soon as smoke is visible, place the lid on the pot and reduce the heat to low. Smoke the pecans for 20 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and pour the warm pecans on a serving platter. (Allow the wood chips to cool completely before discarding.) If making ahead, store the pecans in an airtight container.
