    Summer sausage casing question

    Measuring stuffer tube size

    Are the plastic stuffing tubes measured form the inside, or outside? Example, Waltons chart shows to use a 10mm tube for 18mm collagens.

    high temp cheese in snack sticks

    They came out ok. Like the collagens, no blowouts. Wasn't as hot as Id liked though. Going to do some more today but Im using the prepared jerky seasoning from Backwoods.

    high temp cheese in snack sticks

    high temp cheese in snack sticks

    I think I goofed. The tubes that come with the stuffer are 16mm, 22,32, and 38. The collagens I bought are 19mm. Will they fit on the smallest stuffing 16mm tube? Seems like it will be too tight.

    high temp cheese in snack sticks

    Ordered a stuffer today. I have some jerky seasoning Id bought, Backwoods brand. Can I use this to make my snack sticks? I usually just make my own, but wondered if they would be good with the jerky seasonings.

    high temp cheese in snack sticks

    Honda, that's a thought, might try grating the cheese. Yea, its an old Olster electric grinder. This is the coarsest plate I have.
