Beef only snack sticks?

[hondabbq]

I got a smoking deal on some 78% ground chuck at work today.

I usually make my snack stick mix with 50% lean beef and lean pork.

With the higher fat content of the chuck would I have to add pork to it?

I use 80-20 gb all the time and for me its just fine as it is.

I usually use 88/12 from Costco, but 80/20 works just fine. In fact, I think the 80/20 sticks to the collagen better.

To fattie for me. All beef I use 90-10 or 93-7. I hate the fat feeling in the mouth.

80/20 or 90/10 depending on what i'm making.

85/15 because that's what the local grocery store grinds and puts on sale in 10 lb bags.
