Alabama Fire Crackers
These Alabama Fire Crackers are a salty, spicy, ranch-seasoned snack that has been a game day favorite in my kitchen since 2009. They take just a few minutes to mix together, then sit overnight so all that seasoned oil can soak into the crackers. Serve them by themselves or with a side of pimento cheese for an easy game day snack everyone will ask you to make again.
