Ingredients
- 3500 g beef chuck about 7.7 lbs; 20/80 fat to lean meat
- 7.5 g salt about 1.5 level tsp, curing salt #1
- 45 g kosher salt about 2.5 Tbsp
- 6.5 g black pepper about 2 tsp, ground
- 6 g granulated garlic about 2 tsp
- 8 g onion powder about 2 1/2 tsp
- 42 g Fermento about 6 Tbsp
- 5 g dextrose about 1 tsp; can be substituted for white sugar
- 8 g mustard powder about 1 Tbsp
- 5 g celery seed about 2 tsp
Instructions
- Grind the meat through a 3/16" (4.5 mm) grinder plate.
- Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well. I find that a stand mixer with a paddle attachment works very well for mixing.
- Stuff into 18-24 mm natural or collagen casings.
- Tie into 24" rings (24" total length, 12" top to bottom when the ring is formed).
- Transfer to the smoker and dry without smoke for 30-45 minutes at 110F, or until dry to touch.
- Raise the temperature to 130F and smoke for 2-3 hours or until the desired color is obtained.
- Transfer to a large pot with water preheated to 165F. Poach for 15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 154-158 F.
- Shower with cold water for about 5 min, then let cool down and dry.
- Cut into 6" sticks.
- Store in a refrigerator.
