How to Make Buttered Saltine Firecrackers

Buttered Saltine Firecrackers
2/3-1 cup Real Butter, melted
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 pkg Italian Dressing Mix
1 pkg Ranch Dressing Mix
3 tablespoons crushed red pepper flakes
1 (16.5 ounce) package saltine crackers
- Mix together the melted butter, onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, dressing mix, and crushed red pepper flakes in a small bowl.
- Empty 2 sleeves of crackers into a 1 gallon ziploc bag, pour half of the buttered firecracker juice over the crackers.
- Empty the remaining 2 sleeves of crackers into another 1 gallon bag and add the remaining buttered firecracker juice.
- Seal the bags, shake gently to coat well with seasoning/spices.
- Let the bags set for about an hour, shake/turn to coat the crackers and allow them to set for about 8 hours or overnight before serving.
- They will taste overly salty if they aren’t allowed to set the proper amount of time! If you let them set for at least 8 hours, they’ll be perfect. By the way, No Baking Required and despite other recipes to the contrary, baking doesn’t make them “more crisp”.
