does anyone use a mix of beef and pork for snack sticks? If so what % of each. Im going to use an 80/20 but ogbthe 80 how much is beef and how much is pork? Same for Summer Sausage?
Got it, so what if you use very lean beef and pork. Like a pork loin and eye of round? Those dont have a lot of fat so would need to add more. I see what your saying if the meat had a good fat count already.
I have not tried it, but I have "heard" that using straight pork also makes good sticks. Pork is a lot less expensive than beef also. One day I'm going to try it using some lean loin fresh ground.
