Well the verdict is in ... my dog has a few weeks supply of lean meaty dog treats.
They were not good at all. I like the lean consistency. The flavor is just bad. Well I guess you learn by your mistakes. So if anyone ever asks; Can you use marinade to flavor ground beef ... Tell them NO!
Thanks Dan ... I backed off the cure to 1 tsp. I guess I freaked a bit. They are in the smoker now. In hind site I should have slowed my roll a bit and researched a good recipe. This is just so much damn fun. It was the first time I ever ground my own beef. It won't be my last, it was so freakin...
Now after 4 hours of work an $24 worth of meat ... did I just screw it all up by adding marinade? Is it safe to eat? No real clear answer on the web.
thx rick
I going to run the whole 5#'s. Yes I will be adding pink cure salt @ 1/4 teaspoon per pound. That's what the jerky seasoning calls for, I hope that is correct.
I was just going to run the beef straight without adding additional fat. It's chilling in the freezer ready to grind. As snack sticks I think I might be ok with dryer. No other risks?
I going to make my second batch of snack sticks. I just got home from Costco and bought a 5# Beef Chuck Pot Roast. I cubed it up and trimmed it down to about 90/10, (my best guess).
I wanted to try a leaner, slightly healthier snack stick. What is the drawback to cutting the fat down?
thx, rick
