Texas Trash

This year's holiday goodies included several batches of our family's version of Texas Trash.  It's like Chex Mix, but way better.



Texas Trash

2 pounds of pecans
1 - 1 pound bag of pretzels (I used the sticks, not the twisty kind)
1 small box of Rice Chex
1 small box of Cheerios (not the honey nut kind)
1 small box of Cheese-Its
2 cups (1 pound) of butter (do not substitute margarine here)
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons garlic salt

Preheat the oven to 250F.  Mix the pecans, pretzels, Cheerios, Rice Chex, and Cheese-Its in a pan (I used two disposable aluminum roasting pans).  Melt the butter and mix in the Worcestershire sauce and garlic salt.  Pour over the dry ingredients and blend well.  Bake for 2 hours, uncovered, stirring every 15 minutes.  Cool before storing in an airtight container.
