Equipment

Ingredients

For the snack mix

2 cups pretzels
2 cups cheddar fish crackers
2 cups square cheddar cheese crackers
2 cups rice Chex cereal
2 cups oyster crackers
2 cups almonds chopped

For the sauce coating

6 tablespoons butter melted
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup Sriracha
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon red pepper flakes

Instructions

Preheat oven to 250F. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Combine all the pretzels, crackers, nuts, and cereal in a large bowl.
In a medium sized bowl, combine the melted butter, spices, Worcestershire sauce, and Sriracha. Stir to combine.
Pour the sauce over the cereal and cracker mixture.
Stir to combine and make sure that the crackers are all coated.
Spread on the prepared sheet pan. Be sure to spread into a single even layer.
Bake at 250F for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes.
Remove from oven and cool completely.

Notes

Don't get hung up on the ingredients. Use your favorite.
Taste the sauce before pouring over crackers. Adjust the heat level to your liking.
Add more heat if you want an extra-bold Chex mix.
Substitute the butter for vegetable oil if needed.
If it seems greasy, spread the mix out on paper towels for a few minutes.
Try my oven-baked chex mix or crockpot chex mix.
