Thanks for the lists. I'm just starting in this sausage making addiction so I copied and pasted to a word document and will print and keep it with my Charcuterie book.
Al, I saw this post and looked at your updated post using the vac seal canister.
I have both the regular and wide mouth vac seal adapter for mason jars.
Am I right in thinking a quart mason jar would work instead of the canister so the pickling time is reduced to just a few days?
Probably a great way to do them if I had an electric or propane smoker. I doubt if I could ever control the temp that precisely on my stick burner (Lang).
+/- 25* from target is about the best I can hope for.
Interesting.
The instructions from the Hi Mountain kit say to take them out of the refrigerator after an overnight cure and let them stand at room temp for an hour.
It then says to smoke at 200* for about 2 hours or until the IT is 165*.
It also cautions not to over smoke because it will...
Taste great. Just enough bite to not be bland.
I'm gonna use the Lang next time. I can easily run it at 200* so the sticks will get to 150 IT sooner and I know the smoke flavor will be much better than with the liquid stuff. The dehydrator at 165* took way too long and the casings are a bit...

I always say "The less comfortable they are, the sooner they leave".
And the sticks look great.

We've done a lot of jerky, both strips and ground meat. All has been good so far.
Only thing I'm unsure of is the time for...
I found some Hi Mountain seasoning kits on sale at Academy Sports the other day so decided it would be a great way to test my abilities with the new Hakka 15# horizontal stuffer.
The kit says it makes 20# of snack sticks so I bought 10# of 80/20 ground beef from Walmart. It comes with two...
I finally found the number for the Hakka Brothers customer service. The person I talked to was barely understandable and didn't speak or understand English very well. She did seem to make every effort to answer my questions though.
She said that the plunger part of the piston could not be...
