Pepper sticks

[OU812]

The neighbor stops by the other day and says he just had a show hog butchered and wants something made out of it I said give me all shoulder, picnic, and all the other big hunks you dont want. We ended up with just over 24 lb all sliced and ready for the grinder

Divide that in half,for some brats and season this half for some Pepper sticks

Squirted out a few of these

Let them come to room temp wile the smoker heats up

Here we go!

Gave them 3 hr Pecan and about 8 hr later we get these,,,,,,,,,,,,,oh ya

Gooood stuff!

How long did you smoke them for and at what temperature?  How much longer did you keep them in the smoker for after you finished with the smoke?  Would love some details as Im doing my first batch this weekend.

Allow the sticks to get to room temp (68 to 70 F) wile the smoker warms up

1 hr smoker set at 110 F no smoke
1 hr @ 120 F start 3 hr smoke
1 hr @ 130 F
1 hr @ 140 F
1 hr @ 150 F
1 hr @ 160 F
Finish @ 170 F

After the smoke,dump and refill the water pan and rotate the racks every hr front to back and bottom rack to top, the rack above the bottom one goes down to the bottom and all the other racks go down one, then the bottom rack goes on top.

As to when there done shoot for an IT of 152 F after that I go by look and feel,,,,,,,,,,plan on all day  ;D
