Ok tried to make some beef sticks.
Got the batch all mixed, stuffed in 19mm collagen casings, put in the old smoker and when temp hit 153 pulled from smoker.
Well the casing shrunk from both ends so now there is about an 1 1/2 " of bare meat on each end.
So what the heck did I do wrong? Over stuff the casings or something else?
