If you're going to fight, then fight like you're the third monkey on the ramp into Noah's arc... and brother, it's starting to rain.
Looks wonderful.
Looks amazing. I say this since I have a manual labor grinder. And thirty pounds of meat kinda takes it outa you. Sniper-T try this recipe and let me know what you think of it.

Made up some Jerky on the weekend...
I did up two batches:
1. Deer FS
garlic powder
roasted red pepper
onion powder
Cajun seasoning
black pepper
salt
soy sauce
Worcestershire
2. Deer FS
Onion powder
Garlic powder
Cayenne powder
chili powder
black pepper
salt
Dr. pepper.
marinated in the fridge for a day, and then 3 hours in the smoker at 160F with apple/mesquite, and whiskey oak.
Finished in the dehydrator at 135 for 3 hours.
Turned out freakin awesome!
This is after the smoker, getting ready to dehydrate:

Grampa was always a straight hickory wood smoker back when he had his farm. Last I had heard the grove of hickories his dad had started explicitly FOR smoking fuel was still there.Originally Posted by Sniper-T
Out here a lot of stuff is mesquite smoked, being the major woody burnable in a desert. (a few folk I know get paid very well for de-mesquiting ranch and farmland out here, and get to keep the stuff to boot.)
Any particular wood/seasoning combination in your sausage smoking?
basically it depends what I am in the mood for and what the meats are. I like Hickory and mesquite for stronger game meats, while some pork and chicken do better with cherry or oak. I often do blends, to cut down the harshness of a mesquite I will do 75-25 with something milder, like apple.
