Well the dry cured stix are ready!





This is a new favorite! By far the easiest and shortest cure with great results!

Kirby, I did use cure #2 and regular stix casings on them.

CRG,

I did take some notes on the recipe, but just used what I had:

50/50 Pork and Beef
Dextrose
Salt
Whole Black pepper
Cayenne
Fermento
Cure#2

Mixed with the KirbyMixer and let sit in the fridge for 5 days to cure mixing every day then stuffed and cold smoked for 3 hours.







And this is so everyone can get a good laugh!   ;D ;D ;D



FYI: Do not open the water valve before you close the return!

Thanks to everyone who follows my posts and leaves there comments.

May I warn all you water dogs to put a paper towel over the stuffer vent fitting before filling and be ready to shut the vent quickly when it fills. I just barely crack it so that I can shut it quick. I rarely have water accidents at least not when stuffing but I make more of a mess when cleaning up all the rest of my equipment. That is why I ran a hot water line to an out side wall on the house. There I can let the water fly and who cares where it goes.
