Recipe for Disaster: Trail Mix Snack Sticks

Trail Mix Snack Sticks!

In this segment we take big swings at recipes that could either be amazing or disgusting! Today we are taking a snack stick, adding pumpkin seeds, mixed nuts, raisins, cranberries and mini M&Ms

Prep Time

3-6 hours (including smoking)

Cook Time

Until Internal Temperature was 160 Degrees

Ingredients

Pork
Snack Stick Seasoning
Mixed Nuts
Craisins
Mini M&Ms
Pumpkin Seeds

Utensils Needed

Meat Grinder
Sausage Stuffer
Grill/Smoker or Oven

Instructions

Follow the normal process for making a snack stick but add ingredients for your style of trail mix. If you add M&Ms add them during the last 60 seconds of mixing to prevent the color from being washed off the candy coating.

Disaster rating: 1-10 where 10 is the worst

This was a 1, maybe a 2 and that is only because we added the pumpkin seeds and they had some crunchiness to them that we didn’t care for. Other than that, these were awesome and did not last long! We maybe would have added more M&Ms as the sweetness from that really stood out. Also, we used the Cranberry Summer Sausage Seasoning but there are plenty of others that would have worked just as well.

Fat_Bob This was really really good, one of our IT guys fell in love with it so I gave him the rest and he was really happy. The gummy bears were disgusting! We have another truly terrible (worse than gummy bears) to release soon. I lost testosterone and manliness just thinking about it again.
