I made four variations of this: Ranch, Sweet Chili, Sweet Baby Rays BBQ, and Ghost Chili Wing sauce. When I made them I did 50% sauce and 50% water. Cooked them for 4 hours in the slow cooker. The BBQ and Sweet Chili took a long time to dry due to the sugar content. All were good with the BBQ and Ranch being the kids’ favorites.
I bought 2 #10 cans of yellow hominy. I drained, rinsed and just added seasonings. One tray is spicy ranch, one organic herbs tajiin , and taco. They are in the deep freeze waiting their turn. Excited to see how they turn out. Thanks for the inspiration!

Thank You!!!! My brain is going like wildfire with possibilities. Just waiting for my FD to be delivered in a few weeks and away I go. :) Love your ideas and videos.
Finally got a break in my fd schedule and these are in the crockpot right now will be going in the fd in the morning after freezing tonight. THANKS John, we always count on you to come up with something different!

@@JohnInBibs Well, they taste great! but even though they are dry, the liquid is flexible and headed towards sticky. I think I need to drain them more next time. Thanks again.
Oh man!!! Hearing you eat these makes me want to run to the store and get the stuff!!! Thank you! I can’t wait to make them!!
Cheese sauce for Mac n Cheese would be excellent too.
Jon! I can’t wait to try these sweet chili corn nuts. My dad (RIP) 🥰 🌽 🌰 Back in the day, they only had plain. He loved the chili lime, and BBQ. I got my grandson to love them too 😊 Thank you.
Hi John. You inspired me. Purchased three #10 cans of hominy. I am experimenting with it. My first can, I split into four parts. Each of the four parts will be slow cooked separately and each 1/4 will lightly fill one tray each for a total load of four trays. Each tray will have a different flavoring. The flavors I am in the process of preparing for the freezer prior to freeze drying are: Sweet chili sprinkled with Slap Yo Mamma and Lime; Smokey Mountain BBQ sauce; Honey Mustard BBQ sauce and Ranch dressing mix combined with sour cream in some of the hominy juice in the can. I have a couple loads in front of it but but by the weekend, I should know which of the four I like best. Thanks for inspiration! Probably, I will like them all and prefer a variety pack of FD "Corn Nuts."

@@One1Luv I like variety and so that is my first vote. However, my favorite was Smoky Mountain BBQ. My next run will be of: Blackstone Tequila Lime, Raspberry Chipotle, Chinese BBQ Sauce and Salt, Pepper, Garlic and Ginger.
Yummy If only I had teeth Great video my friend God bless you🙏🙏🙏
Would love to see you try the hominy with ranch dressing and maybe honey mustard and BBQ sauce. I really did enjoy your video. You really come up with some unique ideas. Thank you for sharing and teaching us.
I love corn nuts but they are way too hard to eat! Can't wait to try this!
Might be out of date but sealed and canned should last even longer. Thanks for sharing Jon! Nice pocket candy.

I don't see how anyone can chew a real corn nut! I love hominy so I'm gonna try this! Genius!❤
My husband and I were talking about this a few weeks ago. Now…we know it will work.
John for those mylar bags I use my foot long pestle rounded end or the one for my vitamix.
I drained a big can of white hominy well. Then I sprinkled dry ranch dressing powder, just a little, mixing well between sprinkles. I also did BBQ sauce and Italian dry dressing. Then into the trays, into the chest freezer. I put them in the FD this morning. I can't wait to try them out.

That is great, I tried something very similar but was not satisfied with the texture of the FD Hominy afterwards. I think the cooking really helped the texture and also brought out that corn flavor. Let me know how yours comes out.
Now I need to find some #10 cans of white hominy!
I love your creations🌻

Love your channel, Mr John. Thank you for the ideas.
These look so good! I’d love to see you make other flavors!
Love that sealer
Thanks, John. I have to get after this asap.
Why did you seal it, then waste the bag and open it? I can't wait to try this! How long did it take for them to Freeze Dry? Any certain temp?
Yum! Going to try this!
Now I know what I’m going to do with my 10 can of hominy, mine’s not quite that old but none the less I’m sure I’m going to just love this snack item!

@kayemoore I am so happy you liked it. It is always nice to read such positive feedback!
Nice idea..
I am making mine with the sweet chili and a bottle of sweet and sour sauce. We will see how it turns out.
Yes, please. Try different flavors
Awsome idea. I wonder what it would taste like if you just used powder seasoning. Hmmm...I need to try this.
From what I understand you prefroze these before putting into the freeze drier? Thank you for your videos!
just a hint I figured out with packaging. Get a very large bowl and put your freeze dried items in the bowl and then put them in the mylar bags. so much easier than trying to fill the bags out of the trays.

I dump my trays in a gallon zip lock bag then pour into the mylar bags

I use a wide mouth canning funnel, the gusseted bags stand up and hold the plastic funnel without help. Then I use a spatula to scoop them into the funnel. When it gets low, I pick up the liner, fold a little and slide the contents into the funnel.
Taco seasoning with lime!

I wonder if using yellow hominy would have much of a different flavor?

I wouldn't think it makes much difference. If you try it let us know!
I am new to freeze drying and have already bought your cookbook. Do you have to freeze these before you put them in the freeze dryer?
@JohnInBibs

I always freeze before freeze drying. I think you should be ok, but there is corn syrup in the sauce and I would hate to see a mess in your FD because of not pre freezing
Can you link that can opener if you got it on Amazon.

In over 350 videos that I have done I haven't changed a setting from factory. I guess if I did a hard candy or a delicate yoghurt culture I would change them. Otherwise, I press start and FD for 40 hours (pre frozen) or until dry.
