Good evening all,
anyone have a spicy slim jim type recipe that doesn't come in a kit. looking to do a 10lb. batch maybe. TIA
 
Ricks Spicy Beef Sticks.

10 pound recipe (5# recipe below)
10 pound burger or venison (85/15)
(Venison can also be used, just add 10-15% beef or pork fat to the venison.)
2 tsp. cure 1
6 Tbls. Salt
1 Tbls. Black pepper
1 Tbls. Red pepper (I used chipotle)
1 Tbls. Garlic salt
1 Tbls. Accent (optional)
1-1/2 Tbls. Sugar
2 tsp. Cayenne pepper (add more for more heat)
1 tsp. Paprika
1-1/2 Tbls. Crushed red pepper (I ran thru spice mill just a little to break up seeds)
1 Tbls. Hot sauce (I used Franks Xhot)
1 Cup water (mix hot sauce into water with sugar and salt)
2 Tbls. Encapsulated citric acid (optional) mix in last by hand so you dont break the capsul.

Mix hot sauce, sugar, water and salt together.
Mix other dry ingredients well except ECA.
Put wet and dry ingredients on meat and mix well.
Just before stuffing mix in ECA.
Stuff into sheep casings or small stick size casings (17-19mm) collagen
Smoke 1-1/2-2 hours at 150-160 F. Then bump temp up to 175 till IT measures 152 F. Continue until desired dryness or dehydrate further for slim jim like dryness. Can stop at 152 IT for fresh snack stick style.

5 pound recipe
5 pounds of burger or venison (85/15)
(Venison can also be used, just add 10-15% beef or pork fat to the venison.)
1 tsp. cure 1
3 Tbls. Salt
1-1/2 tsp. Black pepper
1-1/2 tsp. Red Pepper (I used chipotle)
1-1/2 tsp. Garlic salt

Not a kit but seasoning. Bloody Mary from Owens or Waltons is fantastic IMO
