Hi guys and gals, I finished up a 5lb batch of uncle bucks snack sticks last night. Its a kit from bass pro, its tastes a lot like the LEM kits that I have done in the pass. They passed the family taste test with flying colours. I used 4lbs of lean ground beef and 1lb ground pork, I also added 3oz fermento, 1.5 TBsp black pepper, 1 tsp red pepper flakes and .5 TBsp garlic powder. I smoked it with 2 hours apple only because that's all I have left, I wanted to use hickory. It took about 9 hours from start to finish with an IT temp of 155.
