Step 1

Fry up the bacon until it's nice and crisp. Note: for those who've asked, 1 pound of bacon (in my experience) will yield between 1/3 to 1/2 cup of drippings. It depends on the bacon you use.

Step 2

Then place the cooked bacon in a container and reserve it for another use- it's the leftover drippings you're after!

Step 3

Pre-heat the oven to 250 degrees F.

Step 4

Melt the butter and bacon drippings together in a saucepan, then stir in the seasonings to make a nice, buttery mix.

Step 5

In a very large bowl, combine the mix ingredients.

Step 6

Gradually stir in the buttery seasoning mix until the dry mix is evenly coated.

Step 7

Spread on cookie sheets and bake for 1 hour, turning every 15 minutes.

Step 8

Spread on paper towels to cool.

Step 9

Store in airtight container.

Step 10

Makes about 14 cups Chex mix snack.
