Ingredients

  • 10.5 oz. log plain goat cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup pecans (finely chopped)
  • 1/2 cup almonds (finely chopped)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp Bull Sweet Heat BBQ Rub
  • 1 tbsp parmesan cheese grated

  • Preheat Bull Pizza Oven or Bull Grill to 350 degrees. If using the grill use indirect heat by turning off 1/2 the burners and cooking on the side that is off.
  • Slice goat cheese into 8 equal round pieces
  • Add nuts, garlic powder, onion powder, Bull Sweet Heat Rub, parmesan cheese, and salt into a bowl. Mix the ingredients together.
  • Beat egg & a few drops of water in a shallow bowl.
  • Lightly wet your hands and hand form slices of goat cheese into round pucks.
  • Dredge goat cheese pucks in almond flour and shake off excess
  • Dip slices one at a time into the egg mixture, allowing the excess to drip off.
  • Then place cheese pucks in the nut mixture, covering the entire surface with nuts. Press the nuts lightly into the cheese. Place on a lightly greased cast iron pan and repeat process until all the goat cheese has been coated in nuts.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the nuts turn dark golden brown but do not burn. Check-in on the grill process every 5 minutes until done.
  • Serve on a salad or on their own for a tasty appetizer.
