Getting some stuffing done

Brought my long table in, sanitized with bleach/water and covered with clear wrap. Easy to clean up and dont have to worry about X contamination if any.

Using my LEM 5 (My electric valve for my water stuffers not done yet)
(http://i868.photobucket.com/albums/ab242/nepas1/new/DSC00498-1.jpg)

Pack down good to eliminate air pockets.
(http://i868.photobucket.com/albums/ab242/nepas1/new/DSC00511.jpg)


This is a 2.4 lb batch.
(http://i868.photobucket.com/albums/ab242/nepas1/new/DSC00499-1.jpg)

19mm clear smoked collagen.

I been starting to tie in the middle to hang over the bell stick. Found i get more on than doing a rope.
(http://i868.photobucket.com/albums/ab242/nepas1/new/DSC00502.jpg)

Try to make the same length, tie the ends.

Very nice. NePa where can I get a small steel tube like the one on your stuffer? It looks like I have the same stuffer but my smallest tube gives me fits with 21mm casings let alone 19mm. WOuld love to have a skinny steel tube.

Ya know i have used allot of pre mixed and allot of home made stick recipes. But this one is pretty dang good.

(http://i868.photobucket.com/albums/ab242/nepas1/new/DSC00638-2.jpg)

(http://i868.photobucket.com/albums/ab242/nepas1/new/DSC00637-1.jpg)


These were 4 hours smoke done at 2 different intervals. They hung in my 6 rack for close to 19 hours at 155. This is the 5 lb batch. Next batch im going to let hang at 24 hours.

10 lbs ground beef (I used 80/20)
4 T. HOT Hungarian paprika (if you can't find it use regular paprika but double the cayenne)
1 Cup powdered milk
1/2 Cup Powdered buttermilk
5 Tbs hot mustard (Dry if you can find or Plochmans spicy peppa)
5 Tbs Non-iodized sale
2 Tbs powdered sugar or corn starch (I use the corn starch for a smoother better held consistency)
2 Tbs garlic powder
1 Tbs ground celery seed
1 Tbs onion powder
1 Tbs ground cayenne pepper
2 tsp fresh ground black pepper
2 tsp Cure #1
2 tsp allspice
1 tsp ground thyme
1 3/4 cup cold water
 



Mix all ingredients well with the water and let sit for an 30 min. I used a blender to make sure the dry milk and buttermilk were totally mixed and not clumpy.
Stuff into casings.
Smoke with your favorite wood at 150-155?. If you smoke for 20-24 hours you will increase the tanginess of the taste. For less tangy, cut the smoking time in half. (I hit smoke at 2 hours in at 2 diff times)

Thanks!
