After seeing the meat sticks muebe made I had to go and get me a new toy to play with.
It's not the best made but for a starter kit it's not bad 39.00 at Gander Mtn

Here is a try at pork sticks with my rub but waiting on a different seasoning to come in so these are for practice

I have to cook them in the oven cause my racks are to large for the Bradley and I don't have time to cut them down today :'(
but will do the next batch in the Bradley

Well I fixed the racks so they would fit. Here are the 2 racks of meat in the Bradley

Now I can't wait to get the real seasoning I want to use and try them!!!

Yeah! It's all his fault!
Uh...wait a minute :o
Nice job Tommy ;)
-
It left here on Friday Tommy. No bull this time :D......
-
Looks great Tommy!!
I thought they looked to be a little under-done for Kimmies likings ::)

Well took it to work this morning and 100% loved the beef (gunpowder) sticks :) the pork sticks were not as big of a hit. :-\
My boss is sending me 4 lbs of venison to make deer sticks out of, question is how much fat o I need to add if any per pound of venison? Do I even need to add fat?
-
Tommy..venison is very lean (unless you have fat deers)...I have added 1/3 or 1/2 fat. The 1/2 was soo tasty. A good way to try it is mix a lil bit with 1/3, then a lil bit with 1/2 and fry it on the stove..then check for flavor. I add chopped fresh or dried ground jalapeno too. I have a Nesco sausage stuffer thingi. Good luck. Pam ★*˚°。°

I'll try the 1/2 sopunds like it would be better. Since I'm doing these for the boss I need them to be really good ;) so I can get off in June for a smoke out and in Sept for the Big cookout!

Good plan...and add some jalapeno to a small batch and see howya like it. Cayenne works well here to. Pam ★*˚°。°
