Muebe Nuggets

[KyNola]

Hi Cobra.  Yep pink salt, yep straight Soy Vay.  Temps on the other hand depend.  I smoke  the nuggets in the Bradley at around 150 or so and then transfer to the dehydrator to finish.  I'll let the folks who do them start to finish in the Bradley give you a better answer on temps to completion in the Bradley.  One thing I think I've heard is don't go above 170 as you are no longer drying jerky, you are cooking it.

It was great to meet you at MWSO II.

Made these yesterday and they turned out great.  I didn't have any Cure #1 so I substituted 7 teaspoons of MTQ, I added two tablespoons of Cayenne Pepper and a tablespoon of Red Pepper and it still didn't have any heat.  I think I will add some Dave's Total Insanity (hot sauce) next batch.  I smoked them for two hours with Mesquite and continued to dry them in the OBS for 4.5 more hours at 160.  Great Recipe!!!

Glad you like them!

I had that Dave's sauce before and it burns every part of the mouth and throat :o

I finished off a six-pack before my mouth and throat cooled down :D

Mike,
Muebe hit a home run with this recipe.  I made them and everyone I shared with loved them!  Smokey, sticky, hot, sweet.  What could be better?

i am new to the smoking world, and want to try these nuggets, i think i
have a very good recipe to try, same one i use to marinate with for kabobs,
couple of questions for the guys in the know, i read one post here
that you smoke for a couple hrs, do you add heat to that, if so how hot,
and then you leave in smoker for a few hours, i am assuming that is with no smoke
just heat.
sorry for what must seem like very simple questions to the guys in the know
i have a bradley 4 rack digital

Welcome to the smoking world Rigstar.  Yes you apply heat while smoking.  I have an OBS without a PID to control temps.  So, I usually take the cabinet temp to about 200* knowing when I put the jerky the temp will drop to around 160* during the smoke process.  Once done with the smoke time (about 2 hrs) I remove the water bowl and continue cooking around 170* until I like the firmness.

How long do you normally cook after 2 hours of smoke or does just depend on how firm you want them? on average 4 additional hours at 170?

The time will also depend on the size of the chunks. Try to make them all even in size as possible. They usually take a total of 7 to 8 hours. I re-apply a coat of Soy Vay on the nuggets after 6 hours. The last hour or two is to finish the Soy Vay coating ;D

I will be using stew meat that I get from the butcher that is already cut up into equal size chunks.

Has anyone tried this with venison?
I intend to give this a try as I have plenty of wild meat and hunting season is just about ready to start.
