PS Seasoning carries a Habanero Maple spice blend for snack sticks. A little zip from the peppers and a smooth sweet after taste that I think is very good. I did a 25 lb batch in Jan using 22 mm collagen casings but ran out at about 20 lb so I finished with 38 mm collagen casings. I got rave...

Encapsulated Citric Acid
Add 3 oz. Citric Acid per 25 lbs. of Snack Stick Meat Mixture AFTER your final ground.
Adds that "tangy" flavor to your Snack Sticks. (Do not run Citric through your grinder!) This is a must if you like the flavor of Slim...
Morn'n........although I have Rytek's book, I don't have it close by to look up the recipe.
At 1/4 tsp of cure, it sounds like you are working with only 1 1/4 lb of meat (1 tsp cure #1 for 5 lb meat). 6 TBS of salt would be a lot of salt to add to that small a batch.
And, ECA looks like tiny...

Sam..........I was with you all the way........until the SBR's. I use that stuff on BBQ goodies now and then but don't think I have ever heard of it in sausage. I just got my order of Wildfire last week and I have a small pkg of veni in the freezer. Guess I'm just going to have to try this out...
Thanks guy's. The butcher I use said he saved out 6 lb of pork shoulder fat for me. He also said the same thing.....add more cure #1. I think I will try the beer idea as well.
You have been a great help.........thanks again guy's.
I will restart this mission on Monday........

A couple of days ago, my neighbor brought over 25 lb of already ground meat for sausage. I had told him I was going to be using my mixer and while I had it out, I may as well do his as well. I took all the meat, dropped it into the mixer. Took the seasoning and cure #1........mixed it with...
Morn'n Leah.........
A little better than a year ago I was given 6 month free on-line back-up service to try. Last summer the bomb hit (as they say.....not if but when) and my computer blew up. I got a new computer but the old hard drive was shot and nothing could be saved. The on-line back-up...
Hey Boykjo........those look great. I am with you on the meat......I think a 50/50 beef and pork is good for stix. I also add 2.5 lb of habanero cheese to a 25 lb batch of stix when I make them. Just a little late burn.......not real hot.
And, thanks again for the Kielbasa spice blend. I will...
