    Here’s a shot of the finished sticks after I cut them into about four to five inch chunks. I packed them into 12-13 oz packs and sealed them up, and into the freezer.

    No, I used my stuffer with a 19 mm stuffer tube. I set the rack on the counter and hold the sticks until they reach one end of the rack, and cut them to length as I go. Way easier than using casings and I like the taste better.

    Thanks guys. Got her up and running on her maiden voyage into smoke land. This is a 25 pound batch of venison snack sticks. I used a Cody’s sticks kit from Curleys on these. It’s a nice mix of mild with a kick.

    I have been wanting to add some capacity to my sausage making lineup. My MES was big enough to get small batches of sausage and snack sticks made in a day, but doing larger batches required all day, and some times even into the next day if it was a larger batch. So yes, I added a new smoker to...

    Pig shots

    Thanks guys. If theres one thing I’ve learned here, it’s that if I’m interested in how to make something, others are as well, so explaining the process you used is best. That and I can go back and review what I did. Mark

    Pig shots

    With being cooped up int the house this weekend with the whole safer at home order in effect here in Wisconsin, and the fact the weather was not very nice for too much outside with over an inch of rain, I decided to make some pig shots, or pork shots, whichever you prefer to call them. This is...

    Cured pork loin, venison, and brined turkey

    Slicer got a workout today. Sliced the turkey first, then the bacon, and lastly the venison. It all turned out excellent, especially the turkey. And a packaging shot for good measure.

    The turkey tits are out of the smoker and smell amazing. These will make some great sammich stuffins this fall.

    Cured pork loin, venison, and brined turkey

    Cured a pork loin and some venison roasts the last couple weeks, and fired the smoker yesterday. Been making the dried venison for a few years now, and it’s always excellent. Been wanting to do the same to a pork loin to make some Canadian bacon for some time now. Finally got it done, and it...

    Cleaning out the freezer

    We do process all of our own. Between family we have about 6-8 guys that hunt together, so often we have several deer to deal with. With my cousin travelling from some distance, he always heads home around thanksgiving, and we like to get everything well frozen before stuffing his coolers full...
