Guys, thanks for taking the time to discuss the smaller horn. A lot of folks who make snack sticks utilize the "smallest" horn they have, but don't talk to the actual size. Kudos for mentioning the 10mm horn.

When I make a 25 lb. batch of venison snack sticks or summer sausage I just buy a Pork butt, trim off the gross fat cap and chunk it up, usually about 7-8 lbs. then just top off with venison up to 25 lbs. simplifies the process!

[@Barry-p4u]

I agree having your son with you as you do this. I've been smoking just about everything under the sun for sixty years. The one thing I do different, rather than adding water I use salt reduced soy sauce. It really makes a difference.

[@joshtrauger3088]

As a kid I helped my step-dad and his dad make sausage every year. Your sons will cherish these times forever.

I watch a lot of your guys stuff and it’s very helpful. I do have to say I’ve never finished snack sticks in 4 hours on the smoker but I’m going to try the same temps you did I’ve got a 20lb batch going in the smoker tomorrow before work. Only issue is it’ll be single digits tomorrow

[@KenTrimble]

love my grilla grill! I need to start doing this myself and not pay. Love the fact your doing it with your son!! You guys are awesome!

[@kevinburns671]

At the shop I work at, we used to use a Gemini mixer grinder set up. It worked, but a pain to set up, take apart and clean. We now have a single industrial mixer grinder. We also have a hydraulic sausage press, allowing us to pump out 40/50 pounds of sausage at a time. One place I used to work at, we hand a table grinder and manual sausage pump, which was a pain. Now, it’s a lot easier to do more production in less time.

[@nousername4956]

Love you guys and love seeing the kids get into this with you. Putting an order in for some of your seasoning kits next week. Glad you’re using Grilla grills now 🦍

I have never wanted to butcher my own meat, despite my great grandfather being a butcher. But I keep watching your videos and you do make it appealing. But really, I just want a butcher like you near me.

[@danweaver5787]

If anyone out there wants a mouth watering venison burger, use the black seasoning. I added 20% beef brisket fat and 6 oz seasoning to 12 lbs. 1 coarse and 1 fine grind then formed into 5.5 oz (1/3 lbs) patty with a patty press. Grilled from frozen n sprinkled more black seasoning on both sides as I grilled. Took them to 150 internal temp then let em rest for 10 minutes after adding a slice of cheese on each one. Buddy’s wife (who doesn’t like venison burgers) said I’ll take more of those 😎 😋

[@spook233]

You totally need fat for a burger. A lot of people miss this and have sadburgers instead

[@donaldchristopherhernandez735]

They where very delicious as you said that they would be cooking them for us all to eat them up right off the fire pit.

[@scottsmith507]

I bought waygu beef fat from these guys. 2 1/2 pounds to 10 pounds of venison. Best burgers ever had. Not cheap, 40 $ plus shipping.

[@wlmgpab]

Great content fellas! Have you ever tried dried cranberries (craisins) in your meat sticks? Very good with bison or elk, a bit of sweet. We call them pemmican sticks, after the native method of food preservation using mashed smoked dried meat, berries, and fat. Serviceberry is good too. Great energy food during a hunt.

[@cnoodle7650]

Love it. Personally, I stopped cutting bones when CWD showed up. It takes longer with only a knife but I will be attempting the sticks this year

[@camc8923]

You should do one like we do in the field and just straight debone in the field (or your shop). Yes there are certain cuts you don't get but would nice to see professionals do what some of us do without the big boy tools we all dream to have.

I'm so glad that I am not the only one who issues a Dad Tax!

[@colinhamm633]

One thing I think you guys should mention if you do another video like this is that the cure is also a binder for the meat along with the protein extraction. I tried making ground beef jerky with and without a cure and the difference was huge
