    Snack stick ?

    Jerky nut, Nice rock . Stuffing right away makes sense now. I usually make jerky from a kit and the one I use said to cure in fridge anywhere from 4 hours to overnight and then form with a jerky gun so that's what I always did. I just never thought about doing it right away, but it's very sticky...

    Snack stick ?

    Hi all, I've been reading a lot of threads to try and learn as much as I can since joining the forum in the last couple weeks, at least concerning the meats I'm wanting to get into smoking, which is mostly venison. I have a question which would be the same for beef or pork as well and it...

    I made my first venison sweet Lebanon bologna this week end. Not exactly what I wanted but still edible, and I learned a few things. Started by grinding some fairly clean venison trimmings last week end, mostly from hind quarters. Mixed with seasonings on Tuessday night, from the Len Poli...

    Cured Venison Ham(s)

    I used to take mine to a butcher to have dried too, but they were way too salty. I could handle it but my wife hated it, and you know what happens if the wife hates it. Plus, this was several years ago before I did my own de boning. The processor would charge $10 to de bone a hind quarter, but...

    Smoked Venison Dried Beef

    I did this last weekend following your thread and it worked great. That was my first smoke and the main reason for getting a smoker, so finding your instructions was perfect timing. I've already pointed other members to your thread as the best way to do it. Then first thing I did after slicing...

    Phillip, I bought a Smoke Hollow 30 inch electric smoker. It's a plane Jane smoker with two adjustable racks and one fixed. It's insulated and with a few mods (Drilling holes for better air flow vents) works well enough at normal temp in the 225 to 250 range. I did some dried chipped venison and...

    Sandy, Yes , the bologna recipe is from a post by a member named Nepas titled venison sweet Lebanon bologna. It's recipe for a man named Len Poli with Sonoma sausages co. Looks and sounds real good. I am having a big problem however. My smoker won't go low enough to ferment the bologna at the...
