I have done a lot of researching forums on SMF to try and creat the perfect stick! After much browsing I ran across some excellent info courtesy of one of Nepas post! (Thanks!!) and I followed his guidelines for smoking times and temps. To sum it up started them at 100 and worked my way to 170...
After the fact of tying the sticks up to one of my racks I was able to run across some stainless v racks for sticks that I will use in the future. We do what we have to do to smoke some meat!! Hah!
Here's the sticks after stuffing. Prior to extruding the meat I tied the one end with butcher string and then at the end I tied another piece of string to keep the sticks firm. Not too bad.
Hey Everyone! So I decided to experiment with some beef snack sticks over the weekend. Unfortunately I don't have a vertical stuffer so I had to improvise and use the LEM jerky shooter (Snail Method) but works if its all I have for now. I mixed up one pound 85/15 ground beef with High Mountains...
Looks great ricam78! I love my kamado joe! Didn't seem to have much trouble without the DigiQ, but I absolutely love mine. It's almost effortless to run the KJ with it. Stoke the coals and shut it down let the digiQ do the work! Just like everyone is saying you can't have enough smokers/grills...
Mike- thanks it has great flavor! It didn't last long with the people at work! If agree with the 9 hours. But the jerky wasnt brittle and it passed the bend test. I was following another recipe for a SMF member followed about the same time line. I do find with venison it tends to dry a bit more...
About 11/2 hours drying time at 110deg. Then bump temp to 120-130 for 3 hours with smoke. I used the hickory pucks for the Bradley. Then temp to 150 for an hour then no higher that 170. About 9 hours total cook time.
