lamurscrappy lol how many pounds is that?
-
I think that batch was 80ish
-
lamurscrappy Do you not hang you Sticks to smoke? Just curious as it looks like you a cutting to lay on racks?
-
Cabelas90 no i hang them. In that picture i was just cutting them to the proper size for my smoker.
-
lamurscrappy Ok, We always hang the whole rope and cut the bottoms with a pair of scissors.
-
Cabelas90 yea i need to try that again. The few times ive done that ive had the ropes touching each other in spots causing some discoloration so i just went to cutting them to lengths before the smoke.
-
lamurscrappy That’s interesting Ive never notice that to be an issue!

I have been cutting my snack strands double the length I can hang in my smoker with out the ends being too close to the heat source and always keeping the length divisible by 4" or 5". When finished smoking I then cut them in either 4" or 5" length then my Dear Wife vacuum seals them in pint size Pre-cut VACMASTER vacuum sealer bags in our home sealer as we do not have a commercial sealer. She has had tremendous luck with these bags and gets almost 100% seals that last. With a home sealer we have never had much luck going over a Quart bag for dependable seals regardless of the brand of bags. Can’t wait till I can get a commercial sealer. I also love using scissors for trimming my smoked products
