Elk Summer Sausage Question
Thanks Nepas. I did let it drain and there wasn't much blood left. I appreciate the IT recommendation. I figured it would be a bit higher than I do my beef summer at. -
Elk Summer Sausage Question
OK, One last, last question as I'm starting the process. Meat is ground and ready to go. Do I use the same internal temp for the elk summer sausage as I do with beef? Hopefully on the smoker tomorrow. Thanks all. Jeff -
Disappointed with amount of smoke; bought a master built electric 40" added updated part sent by mas
BTW... How do you like the MB cart? It does look sharp!! Thanks Smoker21. I wanted to get the smoker up higher as I'm 6'4" and saw this online. As it's made for the MES40 I figured it would be perfect, and for the most part it is. The smoker locks down to the stand with provided hardware so...- Motorguy

Disappointed with amount of smoke; bought a master built electric 40" added updated part sent by mas
I am one of the minority that doesn’t sing the praises of the AMNPS. I bought one and no matter what I tried I could never get it to keep burning. I followed the lighting procedures, tried it in the smoker in several different locations without success. I tried the “mailbox” system, added a...- Motorguy

Elk Summer Sausage Question
All this is great info and helpful. I have one more question. The meat that I was given is a small roast section, possibly butt and two T-bones. Can I mix both sections together and grind or are they different enough to just use the roast portion? Thanks. -
Elk Summer Sausage Question
Hey Canuck, Thanks for the note back. Great input. I think maybe I'll give this a shot next week. I already have some volunteer tasters.....I'm hoping to do a Q-view. Jeff -
Snack Stick Casings
Hi All,, I haven't altered the mix or the recipe. It's almost like these new casings are just kind of dried out versus the original ones I used. With snack sticks I don't immerse them in water after the smoke like I do with summer sausage. I'm thinking maybe a situation like AB mentioned. I... -
Elk Summer Sausage Question
Hi CrazyMoon and Nepas, Thanks for the replies and suggestions. I'm looking forward to trying something new and will include your input. I'm sure I'll do a Q-view of the project. I really appreciate your help! Jeff -
Elk Summer Sausage Question
I recently had a friend drop off a good sized elk roast. I've not worked with elk before and have found it a bit gamey for my taste. I'm thinking about trying a batch of elk summer sausage with it but have a couple questions. I've got what I think is a pretty good spice mix for beef summer... -
Snack Stick Casings
I've been making different kinds of snack sticks since I got my first MES. I've used a few different brand 19mm collagen casings including Weston and a no name I got on Ebay which were actually pretty good. Last time I ordered a package from The Sausage Maker. I have found those to be kind of... -
Disappointed with amount of smoke; bought a master built electric 40" added updated part sent by mas
I guess I am one of the minority here. I have tried using my AMNPS for a long time with zero success in keeping it going. I've built the "mailbox" attachment, vented the smoker, followed pretty much everyone's suggestions and after a year of trying, gave up. It now sits idle in my used gear box...- Motorguy

New MES 40 Temp Issue
Hi, A couple months ago I bought a new MES40 because I really liked my old MES30, but wanted a bigger unit. I've used it twice since "seasoning" it and for the most part it has been great. Making a batch of summer sausage this weekend, I noticed a couple things that didn't occur last time I...- Motorguy

Brisket Failure to Success!
I didn't get a smoke ring but the flavor was sure there. I've read that using an electric or gas smoker won't create a smoke ring. Not sure why, but that's been my experience as well. I like the temp control of an electric smoker so I guess that's the trade-off. Thanks for the comment! -

Brisket Failure to Success!
Here is my second attempt at a beef brisket. My first one, which I did a post on last week, was a complete failure. After getting a number of replies from my brothers here on the forum, I got great suggestions on how to correct the problems. I also picked up a new rub recipe as I really didn’t...
