This was another holiday favorite around the Hamilton house, and was often given as a gift. My sister is still carrying on this tradition with this same recipe, and it still gets rave reviews.

1 box Wheat Chex
1 box Rice Chex
1 box Cheerios
1 pkg pretzels
1 lb mixed nuts		 Sauce:
1 tbls Worstershire
2 1/2 sticks butter
1/2 cup bacon grease
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp celery salt
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp chili powder
1 dash Tabasco Sauce
In a large bowl mix together the 3 boxes of cereal, the pretzels, and nuts.

Melt the bacon grease and butter, and mix together. Add the spices, and pour over cereal mixture.

Put this mixture into a baking pan and place it in the oven at 250 degree for at least 4 hours, stirring frequently. Let cool.
