Title: Black Forest Beef Sticks
Post by: NePaSmoKer on January 08, 2010, 05:46:08 AM
Good ol uncle Helmut left me his black forest stick recipe with me years ago. I added a twist to it and made them teriyaki black forest sticks. Tomorrow they are going to get pecan smoke.

Greg I am beginning to think he uses the same recipe just different names. Occasionally he adds a new ingredient to change it up on us to keep us guessing. Or he would give up the secret receipt for this one. I just received a couple of sticks of collogan casings that should be made into sticks. Hint Hint Nepas

I hope mine come with the Black Forest Beef Stick recipe and sample included.   :D
A local grocery store has a Black Forest Salami that is awesome.  It is actually Old Forest Salami Black Kassel and is produced in Canada.  Very good stuff..

Heck no i don't mind. Them sure look good.

LTS i am using up my older casings first. My wife even said these are good too  ;D. Maybe next time just a pinch more ginger.

I'm going to do an experiment on a length of the new casing and hit it with 40 Min's of cold hickory smoke?

I have seen casings that are smoked. I do not know if they are actually smoked or just colored?
