I see you had to use the HIGH DOLLAR air piercing device on some air bubbles. Looks good Nepas

What do you know about Backwood Professional Smokers?

ok so here's the dum azz question of the day..... what wood do you guys use to smoke those sticks???? just getting started into it and am in the process of building my own little "smoke house" and have some elk meat that I want to turn into delicious meat sticks. am thinking of using a load of alder but wanted to know what you experienced guys use.

Brew I am from the Hickory Camp here. Just because that's the flavor I grew up on.

I second the hickory. However at times i do use pecan, alder, oak, apple, sassafrass, maple and cherry
nepas
Beautiful.
nepas, what was the cook time an temp profile for that?
Hi NePas
Lumpy's back!
Did you use exactly 5 LBS of meat for one collagen tube (not sure thats the word for it)
Everytime I make sausages I get so carried away that I forget to remember how much meat I used.
Lumpy
Hey Lumpy... Great to see ya back! ;)
Mike
Thanks Mike
My wife told me to stop smoking until the frezzer was empty.
Happy wife, happy life. ;)
Missed this one
Great looking sticks NePas, I really like the way Hickory kinda gives a red hint to the sticks.
Hi Lumpy, Welcome back.
I used just a little over 5 lbs. Started them at 140* with PID for 3 hrs then bumping the temps and times to 170* until done.
Put smoke to the sticks at 140* for 1 hr 40 mins then smoke at the 170* for 2 hrs. I used hickory pellets on the 170*
