Bloody Mary Sticks

[BGKYSmoker]

With my wife still out of state I have had to improvise.

Not fun when you have a bad wing...lol

Stuffing/smoking today.

Why do the casings have ridges?
They have been pressed together in the caddy and vac sealed, the ridge will come out.

Snoopy and PID going

Going to get double smoke with hickory.

My temp probe from pid is hooked to the original (non working) probe.

Hickory sawdust. Starting at 140*

Vac seal your collagen and put in fridge....Thank me later.

Done and in the bag for day or so.

Looking good!!! I ordered the Bloody Mary mix today to see what all the rant is about.

I will be some lean hamburger today to do this. I have enough of the Walton seasoning to last a few life times!

Doing the Bloody Mary sticks today, cut and taste time.

Did a 2 day bag and fridge rest.

The casing I used were grade a gold easy peel/easy bite.
Meaning they are easy to peel if you want necked sticks or easy to bite if you want dressed sticks.

I choose to peel today.

The add of the extra hot pepper is really good. Will really be good in my next drink.

Looking good!! I like the texture, did you finish them in the smoker? I'll use the hot pepper Idea when my Bloody Mary mix arrives. Bottoms up!!

Yes full time in smoker, being small mm casings they didn't take long, around 7 hrs to get to 153*

All vac sealed and ready for well who knows.

Mighty fine looking sticks. . .

 

[BGKYSmoker]

Thanks

I keep telling my wife that I'm going to stop.

Yeah right.

 

[Fueling Around]

Nice batch of sticks.
How did the collagen peel? Slit and roll?
I really dislike collagen casing

 

[BrianGSDTexoma]

Those are nice! I have to just use the gun for mine.

@BGKYSmoker , ever just use commercial jerky seasoning to make snack sticks? Got tons of jerky seasonings and just wondering about using them. I know most brands have specifics for sticks, not sure the difference in ingredients.
Might try just shooting the sticks out naked on Q mats . Not sure if they will tend to dry up to much on the outside getting to temp.
Opinions ?
