    Smoked Sausage resources

    ah ok thanks for this clarification. I have read in one of the marianski books that if you cook them at 185f or higher you dont need cure. .... I guess they would have to get to 140f in 4 hours which would have to include the preparation time?

    Morton Tender Quick for beef snack sticks and beef jerky?

    ...this site! Awesome website by the way! I have a question and am very confused. I just started making my own beef jerky and beef snack sticks. Most of the recipes call for pink curing salt.....can I use Morton Tender Quick instead, to make these two items? Pink curing salt calls for 1/4...

    New sausage stuffer

    ...than the usual quantity of meat left in the elbow. I recently picked up a 11 lb horizontal (Hakka again) and like it much better. Other than just a very small amount of meat left in when done it seems easier to control, is more stable and it is easier to clean. No problems with 19mm snack sticks.

    Encapsulated citric acid with long smoke time

    I typically smoke my snack sticks low and slow and want to try ECA for the first time. I know that you're supposed to add the ECA right before stuffing and smoking immediately. I was wondering if you're doing a 20 hour smoke, would the ECA be released before it hits 135 to 150?

    Snack sticks

    I am wanting to get started on snack sticks. I have recently bought a HI-Mountain snack stick kit that comes with casings and seasoning. Looking for any suggestions on gum to fill casings with and tips on smoking and storage. Thanks in advance for any tips!

    Elk Summer Sausage smoking time

    Just finished chilling the snack sticks. They turned out great too, I think I'm hooked! We hunt a lot, and always seem to have ground deer and elk left over. Not anymore!

    Discoloration in snack sticks

    How are you liking the PS 100 Classic? Sausage/Snack Sticks/Jerky is my main reason for wanting one of these cabinets but would occasionally do other bigger primals when i dont' want to tend my offset. This checks a lot of my boxes but having a hard time making a final decision between this, a...

    A little cook today

    Done is done whatever the temp. Food looks good. That's not I've seen you do since sunup, Keith. ... You coach a lot of people all day on grinding, seasoning, mixing, and stuffing snack sticks. The shine is always a tasty kicker now and then. Moderation you haven't learned?

    28lbs of goodness AKA Bacon

    That is some good looking bacon... Since I can't sell snack sticks legally... I just give them a free pack (6" long, 6 in a pack) for a $10 donation towards my vacation... LOL... I'll do 4 flavors and make a varity pack (1 pack of each flavor) and knock $5 off for $35 total... Within a few...

    Grinder vs stuffer?

    Depends on the sausage. I have a couple of stuffers but still run fresh brats and summer sausage with the grinder and use the stuffer for snack sticks and other smoked sausages. That being said I have a pretty robust grinder ,a 2 hp 220 v number 22 pro-cut With a foot feed. You would be...

    Citric acid and grinding

    I want to add some encapsulated citric acid to venison snack sticks. I keep reading not to grind meat after adding the citric acid. I use my grinder to stuff with, without the grinding knife. Am I okay to stuff this way or will it t break down the encapsulated acid?

    Cured Turkey Snack Sticks

    What I am thinking about using for fat is rendered turkey skin and dark meat. I have to avoid the typical animal fats. Seems my friend was bitten by a tick and contracted a virus that left her severely to the red meats and most byproducts.

    Discoloration in snack sticks

    The 11-hour cook time is a bit long for 19mm snack sticks, but since you hit 155°F internally and ice-bathed them, they should be safe. The lighter spots could be from uneven heat, moisture, or the ECA reaction. If the texture is firm and there’s no off smell, they’re likely fine. Next time, try...
