    Snack Sticks 101

    When you say extra small tube for sticks, do you mean the adapter on the end or the actual load tube? From what I've read the meat tube only holds 1.5 pounds, which means I'll be doing some reloading. As far as the adapter goes, I'm going with the Jerky Cannon 3/8" ID Stuffing Tube - 6" so I can...

    Snack Sticks 101

    Saw your thread and have been drooling since, those look great and I'm thinking I may have to give caseless a shot, however the future wife loves the casing so I'll have to make sure I do a couple batches with casing to start with to get her on board. That is the exact one I'm thinking I'll...

    Snack Sticks 101

    Agreed and thanks for the pointer, I've spent many hours pouring over Bear's step by step guides and definitely drew a lot of information from them and will continually revisit them.

    Anyone use wood pellets in their MES?

    Great, what purpose does the screw actually serve? I plan on doing this pretty much this evening, as I said it was frustrating giving up the limited smoker space of the MES to set the AMNPS in place, however it sounds like I'll be golden on that for future smokes. Will say the AMNPS was a great...

    Anyone use wood pellets in their MES?

    Guessing I have the GEN2, as I just purchased a AMNPS 5x8 last week and unfortunately couldn't get it to quite fit on the support bars, there was a small screw coming off the side of the heat box that seemed to be causing issues. I don't suppose you guys know an easy fix for this? Hate wasting...
