Teriyaki Snack Sticks - Whole RecTec 680 Full!!

[hagewood91]

Here is a picture of the snack sticks I just finished up. I ground the beef and pork on night 1 and mixed in the seasonings/cure from Owen's BBQ. Let that rest in the fridge overnight. The next day I reground the meat and then stuffed it in the collagen casings and let those sit in the fridge overnight. Then last night I smoked them on 180 until the IT was 155 and then plunged them in an ice bath to keep them nice and plump. They turned out great! 12.5 lbs of meat rendered about 100 6" meat sticks!

Looks awesome. Points!

I use Owens BBQ jerky seasoning packets - their garlic pepper is amazingly good.

Interested in your take on these Hagewood. You said they are great; would you recommend this teriyaki? I've had some teriyaki mixes and haven't been that thrilled, but I'd sure like to try a good one. I like other stuff by Owens; just wondered if you think this one is compelling, if you've had any others to compare it to. Anybody else? Thanks!

Well?

I think they are good. I could take some more flavor too them. Next time I will not use as much meat to the seasoning ratio. It called for 12.5 pound of meat. Next time I will try 10 pounds as well as maybe put some cayenne or some other pepper to increase the heat factor. I would buy the seasoning again though!!!
