This is a question, instead of a comment.
Is there a differance between what is called Slim Jims and Pepperoni snack sticks, and if so Please explain the differance.
I make what I call Pepperoni snack sticks out of beef, Venison & Pork combination, venison & Beef combination and I stuff it in 19mm casings, then smoke it to an internal temp of 160 to 170 degrees.
Am I making Pepperoni or Slim Jims?
