    Botched snack sticks, need guidance

    ...the right side. Sticks are hanging in the smoker with racks removed. This was my first run with the new set up but my third attempt at snack sticks. First batch of sticks with the stock MES40 turned excellent but haven’t been able to recreate. My process is based off of a post by BGKYsmoker...

    Snack stick temps stall.

    Over the last several months I started making snack sticks. So far mostly beef, but one time pork. I use a recipe from Age Of Andersen's Youtube channel, Beef Bulgogi Sticks which is what I made today. At first, I borrowed a smoker from a friend, a Masterbuilt Electric 30" digital. I made 3...

    Snack sticks on racks

    Doing a batch of snack sticks. I typically hang them in my MES but trying racks this time. I think I can fit more in the smoker. I cut them to length and placed on racks. Is this meat oozing out of the end going to be ok or should I have tied them?

    Mail Order meats

    Piedmontese. Ordered from them quite a few times. Great quality meats and other items. Their snack sticks are awesome. They often have deals that are very competitive to stuff from local stores but better quality.

    Snack Sticks: Lessons learned

    I am fairly new to sausage making (2 years in) and just finished my 3rd or 4th batch of snack sticks. I've learned a couple things that I thought may be helpful to other newbies. Of course there is more to these tricks to making good snack sticks, but sometimes it's a few small details that make...

    Venison Snack Sticks

    After spending time reading how to make snack sticks in this forum, I finally made my first time ever snack sticks. It’s a 80/20 ratio, 80% venison meat and 20% pork mixed with Owen’s Honey BBQ seasoning and hot temp cheddar cheese using Smoketo collagen casing (19mm). I started at 115 F for 1...

    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 temps stall.

    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...
