Bearded Butcher Original Flavor Snack Sticks DIY Kit

I tried 1/2 recipe's of both Bearded Butcher Cajun Flavor Snack Sticks and Bearded Butcher Original Flavor Snack Sticks for the first time. I followed the recipes using venison and pork fat. I used HT Cheddar with Original and HT Pepper Jack with the Cajun sticks. Aside from the venison and pork, all products came from Bearded Butchers DIY kits. The directions were straight forward and easy to follow. The results were fantastic! The Cajun recipe has a mild kick to it that's very appealing to me but a 'little' spicy for 'some' family members. In future batches I'll omit the cheeses as I didn't think it added enough enhancement to the taste but the cheese gave my carnivore friends something to question when they looked at it. Additionally, my wife might be able to crank the stuffer easier without the cheese chunks passing through the small feed tube. All my family and friends that have tried them have all reached back into the bag for 2nds, 3rds and more; so, the recipes are real hit with everyone I've shared with. I will most certainly repeat the purchases. I'm anxiously awaiting deer season to try the summer sausage kit i also purchased!

All videos and directions are very helpful when learning. Sticks taste great, only problem I had was stuffing it would help a ton if the casings were 19mm even with a new electric stuffer I needed to get a different stuffing funnel otherwise they are great

We are still in the learning phase of making our own jerky and this joy takes the guesswork out of what seasonings etc to put in so we can concentrate on the actual processing.

Delicious snake sticks. Made a half batch with the kit. 6lbs ground chuck and 6 lbs ground pork loin. Seasoned according to directions. Smoked with pecan wood. Absolutely delicious.

We followed the instructions on the back of the seasoning. We used deer meat and smoked the sticks on a traeger just like they did and it was horrible.
