Black Smokey Sticks

[NePaSmoKer]

Well here i guess i gotta make em again.

Im only doing 3 lbs this time.

Beef total 2 lbs





Poke, 1 lb



Its like 90* today so the ground is going to go in the fridge for a bit.

Here is the recipe for 5 lbs. You can make all beef or a combo of beef pork or venison/pork even

5 lbs ground steak or 3.5 ground beef and 1.5 ground poke
7.5  tsp salt
1 t cure 1
2 t Accent (opt) if you add this only use 5 t salt
2 tsp of liquid smoke (opt)
4 t black pepper
2.5 t mustard seed
2.5 tsp fennel seeds, slightly crushed
1 1/4 t anise seed
1 1/4 t garlic powder
17-20mm collagen casing

If you want you can mix and fridge the mix overnight, stuff next day. Stuff at your desired lengths or hang, smoke these at no higher than 175. The amount of smoke you want is your decision. Im going to put 4 hours of smoke to mine.
