    Curing pork belly for bacon.

    I use @BGKYSmoker's snack stick recipe. I tried a bunch, but they all seemed to miss the mark. His was bang on.

    Anyone used a dessicant?

    I just had an idea. I posted in another thread that I have issues with keeping my snack stick casings snappy. I love them after the cook and for a few days after but once I cryovac them they get soft and chewy and peel away from the meat. When they come out from the cook the casings are full...

    Stuffing Tube Question

    ...equipment to force sausage through those really small diameter tubes. I have seen photos where people have broken their plunger plate in half forcing dryer mix too fast. I always add extra 'juice' when making snack sticks for that very reason. This is especially true with those 10mm tubes!!!

    Snack stick temps stall.

    Hard to believe nobody else I've watched / read has mentioned this, but I 1/2 figured that out on my own, just wasn't confident enough to stop earlier... Yea, the 11 hr ones were ruined. Some were edible, but only a hungry person was gonna eat em. Sad part is, you can't even give those away...

    Snack stick temps stall.

    In a small smoker like MES. Don’t forget to rotate those sticks around, don’t just set and forget. Big smokers you get away with not messing with them. Stop watching YouTube and start searching the archives here and/or ask questions in new forum posts. We will and can get you dialed in. Also...

    ...sausage links into the "cold smoke" box on my RecTeq which sits at about 155° on low. Loaded the now empty MES with a batch of spicy snack sticks (50/50 pork/beef, sheep casings) to dry for an hour. After an hour, I loaded in my OnlyFire pellet maze for smoke, and bumped the MES temp to...

    MREs my thoughts.

    Hi all, A few days ago I bought a case of MREs. More out of what I've heard about them. And curious on how Uncle Sam has been feeding the troops lately. And if they are better than the C-rats I had in the 80's. I had the beef strips in BBQ sauce yesterday. And put my thoughts about it in a...

    Sending bacon on a plane with visiting friends?

    Better off shipping with dry ice in my opinion. We couldn't even get into Canada with jerky and snack sticks, all confiscated.

    snack sticks - red outside, grey inside

    Ran a batch of beef snack sticks this weekend using 21mm collagen casing. Had cure #1 in the mix and cooked them off at about 150-175 in my offset smoker hotbox until I hit 155. After water bath and chill in the fridge, I noticed that my test sample has a distinct center on it and and I think...

    GRRRr... Did I Or Did I Not ??

    Damnit... Second guessing myself after sitting here thinking about it... Making some snack sticks and don't remember if I put 1 1/2 or 2 1/2 level teaspoons of cure #1 to 12 1/2 lbs of meat... 2 1/2 is the correct amount but I'll be damned if I can remember... Told myself it didn't look right...

    Options for building new smoker

    I built a 3x3x7 smokehouse that is ran on propane, but I’ve seen them also built to go over something like a BGE for heat source so there are options.
