**Full Disclosure: I received a package of Stubb’s BBQ sauce in exchange for this post. All opinions are my own.
Summer is in full swing here and my kids are done with our usual snacks. In order to change things up, I added garbanzo beans to my grocery list. James & Colin were a little confused by it because they were convinced that garbanzo beans aren’t a snack food.
James wasn’t interested in helping me make the snack, but Colin was a willing helper. I opened the cans and dealt with the oven but Colin did everything else on his own. He dumped the beans in a bowl, measured the Stubb’s BBQ sauce, gently mixed everything together and poured the beans on the baking sheet.
Stubb's BBQ Chick Peas

Enjoy!
While my boys weren’t completely sure about trying them, they did and the BBQ Chick Peas were a big hit! Even my husband, not a fan of garbanzo beans, thought they were fantastic!
Do you like chick peas? Would you eat these?

I love Stubb’s brand products. They are BIG here in Texas. I’ve never tried them with chickpeas. That sounds amazing!
OMG that is such a good idea. I love chickpeas – I think they are so underrated. I need to try these.
To be honest, I don’t know if I like chick peas or not, but this recipe makes me want to try them!
Chick peas are quite interesting. Stubbs Sticky Sweet sauce is wickedly good. Together they have to make a great snack. Thanks for sharing your recipe – I would not have thought about combing the two.
We love Stubb’s and it’s always in our house. I’ve never had chickpeas before so I’ll have to try this recipe.
Oh this sounds SO yummy! Yes, I do love these and am going to get my kids in the kitchen to make this for me 🙂
OMG those look amazing! I think it would be a great alternative to popcorn
Oh that sounds and looks so good! I can’t wait to try your recipe. I love chick peas and my 14 year old has just decided to become a vegan so this is perfect! I’ve never tried Stubbs but will look for it on my next shopping spree 🙂
I’ve never tried Stubb’ s bbq sauce before. I wonder if the stores in my area carry that, I’ll have to check. These chickpeas sound really good.
This is such a cool idea. I really like chick peas and I tend to have a supply stocked up for chili. I want to try this.
You know what, I’ve never made chick peas. I love them in other things, so I’m sure they’d be something I’d enjoy.
I personally would not eat those but I would definitely try the sauce so it’s nothing personal. LOL.

haha! I am pretty picky, so I get where you are coming from!
I love dishes made with chick peas, but I’ve never actually cooked with them myself. It looks like a great dish that the kids can help with.
