Some Peppe jack Stix

[uncle_lar]

Brother Nepas gave me a hankerin for some stix.

I still had some venison in the freezer from last year so I thought I would get on it.

7pounds of venison Burger and 3 pounds of cow burger.

decided to mix up some pepper jack stix.

I use a modified version of the slim Jim recipe in Rytek's book.

here is the burger all mixed up

here are the ingredients. I forgot to put the kosher salt in the picture. I get the high temp pepper jack from a local cheese shop

I also add a cup of water to make them easier to stuff

all mixed up and ready for the stuffer

stuffing with my new 15# SS stuffer. It stuffs about the same as my old enterprise 8 qt. but is way easier to clean up!

Hanging around while I get the smoker ready. I use 19mm mahogany collagen casings from

mid western research. nice casing!

in the GOSM. over hickory. these will take about 6-8 hours. I start them out low @ about 120* 

and the smoker goes up to about 170* as my wood box heats up.

I usually dont have to mess with the burner too much. no water in the pan for stix. it is just a deflector

tic toc! stay tuned

Nice! Those look great. Did you use Hi temp cheese? Was your cheese shredded? I just ordered the stuffing horn for the 19mm sticks from LEM.
