Memphis Style Popcorn Recipes

CARAMEL POPCORN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Line a jelly roll pan with parchment paper. Add popcorn to a large pan, spread out in an even layer.
• Melt butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once melted, stir in brown sugar, corn syrup, and salt until smooth.
• Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. As soon as the caramel starts to gently boil, boil for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
• Remove from the heat and stir in baking soda and vanilla.
• Immediately drizzle caramel over popcorn. Toss gently with a spatula until the popcorn is evenly coated.
• Bake at 200 degrees F for 45 minutes, stirring the popcorn every 15 minutes.

MEMPHIS STYLE POPCORN

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large, heavy bottomed pot set over medium heat, just enough oil to coat the bottom of the pot. Drop a few kernels of corn in the oil to test the heat. When they begin to pop, pour in the rest of the corn, and cover with a tight fitting lid. Shake the pan while the corn pops to keep it from burning, about 5-8 minutes.
• Whisk together the Parmesan cheese, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, sugar, pepper and cayenne in a small bowl.
• Pour the popcorn into a large bowl, and drizzle with butter. Sprinkle with the seasoning mix to taste, and toss thoroughly. You can use all the seasoning in one batch or start with half and work your way up, depending on how much flavor you want.
• Enjoy!

BBQ POPCORN RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together the paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Set aside.
• In a separate small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and olive oil. Set aside.
• Melt the coconut oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add 3-4 popcorn kernels and cover with the lid. Once they pop, add the rest of the kernels and cover, shaking every 10 seconds, until they begin pop. Once the pops are more than 3 seconds apart, turn off the heat and let sit for 15 seconds to allow any final kernels to pop.
• Uncover and drizzle the brown sugar mixture over the popcorn. Carefully toss to coat.
• Sprinkle the spice mixture over the popcorn and stir to coat evenly.
• Transfer to a bowl and eat immediately, or spread in a single layer on a baking sheet and let cool completely before storing in a sealed container for up to 2 days.
• Enjoy!
