Spicy Cinnamon Popcorn

• 10 cups popped popcorn
• 1-1/2 cups coarsely chopped pecans
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/2 cup light corn syrup
• 2 to 3 tablespoons Louisiana-style hot sauce
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 6 tablespoons butter, cubed
• 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1. Preheat oven to 250u0b0. Place popcorn and pecans in a large bowl.
2. In a large heavy saucepan, combine sugars, corn syrup, pepper sauce and honey; bring to a boil, stirring constantly to dissolve sugar. Using a pastry brush dipped in water, wash down the sides of the pan to eliminate sugar crystals. Cook, without stirring, over medium heat until a candy thermometer reads 290u0b0 (soft-crack stage), about 10 minutes. Remove from heat; gradually stir in butter and cinnamon. Pour carefully over popcorn mixture; toss to coat.
3. Transfer to a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Bake 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cool completely.
4. Break into pieces. Store in an airtight container.
