Place both cereals, rye chips, pretzel sticks, and cashews into a large bowl.
4 cups Corn Chex cereal, 4 cups Rice Chex cereal, 2 cups rye chips, 1 cup pretzel sticks, 1 cup cashews
In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, dill pickle seasoning, dill pickle juice, dried dill, and garlic powder. Pour over the dry ingredients.
1/2 cup unsalted butter, 4 Tablespoons dill pickle seasoning, 6 Tablespoons dill pickle juice, 2 teaspoons dried dill, 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Using gloved hands, mix together wet and dry ingredients until everything is completely coated.
Divide mixture evenly between the two jelly roll pans and spread each to an even layer.
Bake for 1 hour, stirring the mixture every 15 minutes to allow for even baking.
TIP: If baking both pans at once, alternate the pans on the racks with each stir session.

This recipe makes a lot of snack mix. If you like, you can cut the ingredients in half to make one pan-full.
After testing this three times, the biggest game-changer was a bottled dill pickle seasoning mix, which delivers the best pickle punch. If you want even more, add an extra tablespoon of the dill pickle seasoning mix and an extra tablespoon of pickle juice.
Be sure you are using brine from dill pickles, not sweet pickles for the best flavor!
There are a variety of snack food options you can use. I recommend any substituting you do, keep the measurement the same. So if you don’t want pretzel sticks, but do want twists, substitute cup for cup.
Peanuts, almonds, or mixed nuts would all work just as well! Or, omit the nuts entirely for allergies and add extra pretzels or Chex cereal to the mix.
