Beef Sticks first time

[kajun58]

Did 5 lbs 80/20 ground chuck beef sticks for the first time with cherry woodchips. After cool down to room temp I put them in oven on 350 for 10 minutes so casing would tighten up around meat to get that snap.Not to shabby.

Yep, Big Casino's recipe is a good one!

Now the folks at work will expect these on a regular basis, trust me!

Sticks look great... Thumbs Up

My first time hearing of the flashing in the oven for 10 minutes... think it helps ?? Anybody else have an opinion on this ??

 

[kajun58]

Flashing them in oven made them look really Purdy imho

I usually bring stix to temp after enough smoke in the oven, but 350 would scare me to death worrying about fat rendering! Looks like they came out perfect, though. I keep saying I'm going to try Kabanosy but I always fall back on Big Casino's recipe....
Thumbs Up

Damn those look tasty.  What kind of casing did you use?

 

[kajun58]

I used 17mm mahogany collagen casing by LEM I found at Academy.
