    Snack stick temps stall.

    ...seen the final temp listed anywhere +/- 3F from the 154 number. To me, 154 for beef is ruined. Which in my setup seems correct for snack sticks as well because this latest batch done to 154 was overdone. Some, dramatically overdone. Most people I've seen doing this stuff use a fossil...

    Snack Stick Beef/Pork?

    Any thoughts on a Beef:Pork ratio for snack sticks? Trying to cut costs by mixing a little Pork butt in with my Chuck roast, but still want good snack stick flavor. Beef prices have killed my sausage making lately.

    Snack stick help

    Snack stick temps stall.

    ...easy to render, has a lower melting point and will cause grease out. Now, for me it didn't cause grease out, but it does cause the snack sticks to be a bit wet when eating them at room temp in the summer. Always learn'n... Who'da thunk it that that particular fat I saved could be an...

    Beef Snack Sticks

    It's been a while but i want to work on my snack stick game. I like sticks that are firm, not greasy and dried (not in a bad crumbly way). I make alot of smoked sausages but am not very experienced with sticks. I don't have a dry curing cabinet. I do have a dehydrator. I've seen some videos...

    Snack stick temps stall.

    ...glass door that I've opened it to squeegee it off numerous times. I think the lack of airflow in the electric may not lend itself to snack sticks since drying them out is part of the idea. I've tried vent open, closed, door ajar, I don't know what's going on, or even if what I'm seeing is...

    Resurrected MES

    ...missed with my MES is being able to do lower temps and control the smoke (my other two smokers fall short there). And since I am low on snack sticks, that had to be my first smoke on the "new" MES. This is just a Grandpa's Landjaeger kit from PS Seasonings. Loaded up. Smoking again...

    Butt in a new to me MES 30 Pro

    ...door. I've been looking for one for a while, not so much for doing pork butt, but to increase sausage smoking space and at some point snack sticks, cheese and bacon. Weber kettles are great for a lot of things, but they make smoking a lot of sausage difficult. Got it home and cleaned up...

    Snack Stick Prep Question.

    Hi, smoking uncased beef snack sticks tomorrow 9/30 and was thinking, could I gun the sticks out on my screens tonight,and let sit in fridge overnight and smoke them tomorrow. Would they get too dried out doing this ? Thanks for any help!!

    Rolling smoke today - First brisket in the new Humphrey's Pint

    ...dark all over now. Starting to get that BBQ smell on the porch again, even when not smoking anything. Yum........ I want to try some snack sticks at a low temp soon. It is supposed to be able to do it with a small fire (double wall, 2" insulation, and reverse flow). That will be an...

    Opinions on binders

    Guys I’m going to be making some snack sticks and some more summer sausage. I haven’t used any binders yet. From what I have been reading they make things juicier and helps bind with the cases. My summer sausage I don’t use casings as I prefer it better without.

    Sausage Weekend

    Wow what a week it's been. Still recovering and dealing with this. Wife did a good job finishing up. The pepperoni and cheese sticks are the first snack stick ive truly liked. Delicious. Kielbasa and summer sausage good as usual. Also did 10lbs or brown sugar maple and 10lbs of country sausage...

    beef sticks

    The cheapest ground beef I could find. The price of meat there is no way I am grinding up a roast of any kind to turn into snack sticks. I have seen the reason why beef prices are so high but the price of beef is highway robbery these days. Walmart ground beef is the cheapest and for sticks it...

    Snack Stick Beef/Pork?

    Not to highjack this topic. Lots of good info here on something I have been thinking about. My LEM jerky canon can with a snack stick tip. I assume that needs casing? Never made snack sticks but when I opened the box and saw the tip I was like - I like snack sticks.

    Found this site kind of by accident. Was making some snack sticks and looking for advice on easier way to hand crank my enterprise stuffer. This site popped up and a forum of how a guy removed handle and put a socket on the square end of gear and used longer 1/2 inch drive ratchet. Wowza it was...

    Snack stick temps stall.

    I don’t like the taste of bs in my ground meat. Pretty much anything whole muscle I don’t mind it. As for the water bath on sticks, I don’t. I air cool them only. The water bath helps stop or lessen the wrinkles but I like wrinkles so I air dry. On larger diameter sausage it is good to water...
