In Shallowater, Texas, just a short drive from Lubbock, there is an absolutely delicious hidden gem.

A southern staple that is hard to not love is the classic candied pecan. It’s sweet, chewy, nutty, and delicious. You can add them to salads, oatmeal, any recipe you see fit, or simply snack on them on their own.

With the Texas state tree being the pecan tree, I think it’s safe to assume that we have some of the best pecans around. I think, If you say you don’t care for pecans, you have to try them fresh before fully forming your opinion.

It is a family run business that used their agricultural, engineering, and design skills to form a great company with well-made products.

They offer a variety of flavors from seasonal favorites like Pumpkin Spice and White Chocolate Peppermint, bold and unique tastes like ‘Nanner Colada and Firebawl, to savory options like their bold Ranch-n-Butter pecans. They also make a variety of pecan brittle flavors, pecan oil, and pecan flour.

One of my favorite details is that their pecan packaging and t-shirts are screen printed in-house.
