i worked in a local butcher shop in 1978 - 1980. this brings back such fond memories. the part that is missing in a video is the smell that comes off the sausage when you spray them down.

Hey there guys if you liked the video subscribe for more! *Also the Binder in the video is Soy Protein Isolate* other tasteless proteins whey de-heated mustard ect can be used as replacement. If there is anything in particular you'd like to see leave me a comment and ill put it on the to-do list! Thanks for watching.

@marko63362 Месяц назад

Thank you for this video! Getting close buying a stuffer soon! Your summer sausage and these pepperoni sticks are on my list to try first. While I have a small bar fridge sized smoker, regulating the heat is a challenge, plus being in Manitoba the temperatures are not very consistent throughout the year. Hoping I can cold smoke these for a couple hours, then cook them via sous vide, but that going to take me some more research. Dealing with below zero temperatures in this province has been holding me back for a while, but I am starting to feel more confident at investing in some new equipment (stuffer, and eventually a grinder).

@GrandpasPlace 3 года назад

Huge kudos for posting it WITH the spice recipe! Ive watched 100's of snack stick videos and they all seem to start with some pre-made spice mix which is not what I was looking for. Quick question, can you use beef middles and sheep's casings to make them? Im not fond of the fibrous casings or the collagen casings and prefer a natural product.

@duncanhenry 3 года назад

Hey, your very welcome. I'm going to give all my recipes away over this series. Yes you definitely can. Sheep casings are always tender so they won't be a problem. Beef middles I would probably suggest peeling those off as the casing wall can get thick and be very chewy.

@DebadooCreates Год назад

Just found your channel. Great videos! You explain things so well. I don't have a smoker or any of the equipment to make these things but have been looking for a place near me that does what you do. Haven't found it yet, but I'm sure if I look a bit further out, to Waco or Austin I'll find a place. I'm in the middle of Texas. I love cured meats. While they'll never be healthy, it would be nice to be able to buy them, made the right way with quality ingredients so at least they'd be a little healthier. Those pepperoni looked so good I wanted to crawl through the screen & snatch em! lol

After buying a grinder I found your videos about a week or so ago and have been watching them a lot. Because of you I now have a 30 lb sausage stuffer and a meat slicer. 😊 I am about to do these pepperoni sticks/pizza size tubes. I have two smokers; a Traeger horizontal and a charcoal offset that is vertical. I seem to have difficulty keeping a constant temperature on the offset smoker so was thinking about using the Traeger. However, obviously I cannot hang them. You mention coiling on the grill grate. Will that still give me good results? Thank you for all your videos, I am about to dive in big time in sausage making, especially now that we are raising our own pigs.

Hey Carlucci, glad you are liking the vidoes. I do I usually use 100g/ml per 1kg of meat or 10% as my smokehouse usually has a cooking loss of 15% so when I add water 10% minus 15% cooking loss I end up with a net loss of 5%.

@gwestfal Год назад

I made this recipe over the last couple days. I ended up just laying long sticks across the Traeger grill to smoke. The sticks turned out amazing! As for the pizza sized ones, they turned out great as well and the pepperoni taste is 100% there. The color is not what typical pepperoni looks like, mine looks more like salami. Is the classic red color due to adding food dye?

If smoker only goes down to 180, should we start these at a lower temp in a convection oven, then move to the smoker?

@ggmonneyy 3 года назад

Hi Duncan! I am new subscriber and brand new to this sausage making. I am expecting the last of the supplies to be delivered today and a I am planning on your Pepperoni Sticks recipe to be my maiden voyage this weekend. I do have a question on when to add the seasoning though. I see that you add it after the grind, but can you add it to the chopped meat or before the second grind and hand mix (or use the kitchen-aid) to the appropriate level of protein extraction? Will there a taste or texture difference? Will it affect the grinder adversely? Keep up the great work.

@duncanhenry 3 года назад

Thank you for subscribing! Welcome to the hobby. The reason I add the spices to the final/second ground in my videos is that if you add it after the first grind the added protein will begin to make your meat sticky. It is a bit more difficult to run through your grinder. Same goes with the chopped or cubed meat. It won't wreak or compromise your grinder if you want to do that. It also wont compromise the texture. Just make sure to mix until it is very sticky and sticks to your hand otherwise you may run into texture issues. If your kitchen aid has a mixer attachment you can add the seasonings to the second/final grind and le the kitchen mix it up for you. Let me know how the maiden voyage goes! I wish you luck!

@darrensharonbarnes6060 2 года назад

Just made this first time making sausage of any kind.wanted to find something as good or better than a certain sausage maker an hour east of Edmonton. There pepperoni is all pork so used all pork couldn’t find a soy binder so used powdered milk instead and used the cabellas speed cure (6.25) reduced down to 2.4 grams per kg to offset the difference. Smoked way faster than I expected at 150 for about 1.5 hours internal temp was 175 range however we all tried it and loved it happened to have a package of the other and we all enjoyed this more. Thanks for sharing! Kielbasa next! Question though how long should it take to smoke I was using 19mm casing

@duncanhenry 2 года назад

Hey Darren that is so cool! Glad you enjoyed the sausage making, and am even happier you liked the recipe. I'm a bit worried about your temperature issue though. If your smokehouse was set at 150f I am not sure how your sausages got to 175f. Because if the smokehouse is the source of heat (set at 150) I am not sure how they got hotter than the heat source. It may be necessary to check the calibration of your thermometer in boiling water (which should be 100c 212f). My process is about 3.5 to 4hrs long and I end at a cooking temp of about 185f.

@darrensharonbarnes6060 2 года назад

@@duncanhenry forgot to mention unfortunately I don’t have vertical smoker (yet 🤔) I am using my Louisiana grill pellet smoker I tested my thermometer before and it is spot on but I am certain it must be hotter on. The grill than up top my lowest temp is 180 but reads 140-150 in the grill. May just need to find myself a vertical smoker to use for sausage. Just watched the cheddar jalapeño smoke video may have to be dinner tomorrow night. Thanks for the reply we will have to stop in next time heading south. Great videos the take all the stress out of learning something new

@rmd9032 Год назад

What did you use as a binder? I have been using non-fat dry milk. Will this be ok? Also if using venison, should I add 20 -30 percent beef fat since venison is so lean?

@joealta3450 2 года назад

@Duncan Henry - We make a lot of pizza at home. We love classic, New York pepperoni pizza and normally buy the best pepperoni we can get but I'd love to do it myself. I really like to know exactly what goes into the food... You called the larger pepperoni here a "sandwich size". I'm wondering if this recipe/process would provide the flavour of a classic "pizza pepperoni"? If not, maybe you could do one? 😬 I'm still working on getting a small vertical smoker... I think maybe using liquid smoke won't be quite as good. Oh! I always grind my own.... What beef cuts would you recommend? Same chuck one would use for hamburger? I was thinking that with some added fat I keep when trimming full briskets. And.... sorry.... may I also ask what final grinder blade size would be appropriate? Thank you and Happy New Year!

@duncanhenry 2 года назад

Hey Joe! Thanks for watching, this recipe would be pretty close to your pizza pepperoni. You may want to add mix of pork and beef with a little more fat. Liquid smoke is okay but it doesn't replace the natural smoke flavor. Whatever beef you like most will probably work fine, if you have some trim you have saved from briskets it will work great. Shoot for a final fat % of somewhere between 15 and 30% I finish these on a 1/8 or 3mm plate.

@jatyson5250 3 года назад

Thanks for the video. Definitely going to do this. I’d love to see the video you teased about using fresh peppers like jalapeños in sausages. I haven’t been able to figure out how to do it right yet. I think I’m getting the percentage wrong.

@duncanhenry 3 года назад

Okay sure thing, I have had a couple request for some Jalapeno Cheddar stuff so that is coming down the pipe. Is it affecting your end texture? Or what problem are you having currently?

@jatyson5250 3 года назад

@@duncanhenry My first attempt with jalapeño was a crumbly texture problem, but I think that was due to not understanding how to use water or binders. I then attempted roasted habanero & cheddar and my texture was perfect, but I don’t think I used enough peppers. I could barely tell they were there. I did 35g/kg (before de-seed and roasting).

@duncanhenry 3 года назад

@@jatyson5250 Okay texture problem can be from not enough mixing. I would do this before adding the peppers and cheese because mixing peppers and cheese can ruin there texture/cheese pocket. Mix until it is annoying sticky. Also I usually use vegetables between 35g-80g/kg. If you roasted your peppers and de-seeded them you probably would have been below that. Cheese I use at 100g/kg to 130g/kg to get a cheese pocket in every bite. above 200g/kg starts to affect your texture. I usually recommend using water at 100g/kg but you can go less. If you want to use more you are going to need to apply a couple more techniques to get it to bind. They can be difficult without the right equipment though. Hope this helps until I get the video up.

Duncan I used your recipe with 100% beef I hung and smoked at 150° for 90 minutes, Then 90 minutes at 165° Then finished at 175° till internal 155° Water bath, hang to bloom after. Cut and bag sealed I have really good looking and tasting snack stick, but the 19mm mahogany casing is separating from meat when eating. What is likely wrong? Not dry enough?

@duncanhenry 3 года назад

Well thats good that you have tasty good looking sticks. I am guessing it was during the water bath. Maybe in there too long or like you said didn't dry enough. I usually skip the water bath on pepperoni/snack sticks all together and let them cool in the cooler overnight. If you wanted to use a water bath I would recommend hanging them back up in a cooler overnight. Might fix the problem.

@me446 3 года назад

Hi Henry, love your channel, the recipes are exact and the methods foolproof. I have a question about fresh chorizo sausage. When I ate it in Spain, I tasted vinegar. Tried to add vinegar to my sausage mix and it breaks the bind, sausage becomes crumbly and looses all the fat in the pan. How much vinegar should I add to the sausage per kg and what is the method to stop vinegar from breaking the bind? Thank you!

@duncanhenry 3 года назад

Hey thank you very much, I am glad it has been some help to some sausage makers out there. Yes lots of Chorizo sausage recipes call for vinegar. It also does "De-nature" the proteins which means the cut little end (If we looked under a microscope) would unravel and no longer bind as well. So you can add extra Binder in the form of another protein like soy or whey or mix quite a while longer. The following recipe doesn't give me any problems though. Salt (Fresh) 18 Salt (Cured) 15 Pepper 3 Paprika 8 Garlic 4.5 Oregano 1 Cayenne 4 Vinegar 10 Binder 10 Ice 90 Cure 5% (if curing) 3 Sodium Erythorbate (if curing) 0.5

Could you please do a video on the different additives? For example, if I'm doing some of these at home, do I need the binders and quick cures and things? Why or why not? Thanks!

How do people make the pepperoni without the cure?

@duncanhenry 2 года назад

Hey Michael have you checked out the "how to make a sausage recipe" video it might have some answers in it for you. Up here in Canada you can't make a pepperoni without cure in it and run it through a smoke cycle or dry curing cycle. If you did you would have a fresh pepperoni or you would need to cook it on a high temp cycle and it wouldn't be the same product you are used too,

@ottolenz2203 2 года назад

Hi - really appreciate your videos. I don't really expect you to answer this - I'm sure you have better things to do - and this is not that big a deal (I'll figure something out). But, I tried this recipe - it turned out well - I used sirloin tip roast and brisket trim (so, I think pretty close to an 80/20 meat/fat ratio). I did do a water bath on the 22mm collagen casings - the chubb was fine (1 1/2"), but the collagen casing sticks came out 'sweaty' - in an oily way. Not a lot, and easy to wipe with a paper towel, but not quite what I expected. I use a Traeger, 165 for 2 hours, 175 for 1, 185 for 1 - finish temp of 153 or so. The collagen casings come off the meat really easily - maybe unusual? Anyway, if anything I've said triggers a comment - great - otherwise, thanks again.

@duncanhenry 2 года назад

Hey there Otto, It may have been the water bath. The casings shouldn't come off of the 22mm very easily at all. They should be pretty much stuck to it. I would maybe skip the water bath on the collagen casings and see if they aren't as sweaty. Your fat ratio was right.

Is the sodium erythorbate like the cutrius acid you see some people use in making snack sticks?

@duncanhenry 2 года назад

Sort of I have a more detailed video about it called how to make a sausage recipe if you want to know more.

@speedyburd33 Год назад

I don't know what I did wrong, but I've got no pepperoni flavor in my first batch at all. They taste great, just not even a hint of pepperoni. Disappointed but I'm going to try again. Any suggestions on getting more of that strong pepperoni taste into them?

@duncanhenry Год назад

Hmmm. Are your spices fresh? If they are years old they can loose their flavor. It could be you like more seasonings try increasing the spice not the salt cure or water though.

@speedyburd33 Год назад

@@duncanhenry Thanks Duncan. I appreciate the response. All my spices were brand new, so I will try increasing everything except the cure and water on the next batch. I looked up a handful of other recipes also and many of them use encapsulated citric acid, which I will also try adding. Thanks again, great videos!

Great videos. My husband is a hunter and does a lot of his own processing. Quick question what is the binder you're referring to in the video? Thank you.

@HTRiverdale 2 года назад

I just found your comment about the binder....soy protein isolate. Any particular brand you like?

@duncanhenry 2 года назад

Hey there Dorraine, I usually use ADM Soy Protein Isolate but whatever tastleless protein you can find works good.

@HTRiverdale 2 года назад

@@duncanhenry Thank you! We made your pepperoni ones today. They were great. We're making your hot dogs in a few weeks.. For the pepperoni snack sticks what is your favorite brand of mahogany casings? Thanks for the time you take to answer all these questions. Will watch more videos too. Thanks!

@guillaumemasse8608 Год назад

What did you used as a binder?(powdered milk? )

Thank you Duncan, What binder you use/recommend for the pepperoni

@duncanhenry 2 года назад

Soy protein or whey or de-heated mustard.

If we use ascorbic acid instead of sodium e. hiw much per kg do we use?

@duncanhenry 3 года назад

Use the same amount.

@lindabemis7346 3 года назад

For those of us without a smoker can this be cooked in oven?

@duncanhenry 3 года назад

Yup you sure could. make sure your temperature is low. If you can I cook mine at 185f with a fair bit of humidity. Also you can add 0.5g/kg of liquid smoke if you are still looking for that smoke flavor.

@dmielhausen 2 года назад

Hey Duncan. Could buttermilk powder be used as the binder without changing the flavour profile noticeably?

@duncanhenry 2 года назад

Hey there I think I got this on FB messenger? I would taste it though most protein should be pretty tastless, if it is you should be fine to use it.

Hi Duncan, I made this last week, with venison, 3 Lbs. 1,362 grams meat with 25 % fat, 340 grams. and smokie it Until IT 155, but came out a little dry, what did I wrong?

@duncanhenry 2 года назад

Not quite sure what the math is there but this is what I would do to make a venison sausage with pork blended in at 30% Take your venison weight multiply it by the percent you want. In this example I want 30% pork. Then divide by the percent of venison you want to have in your final product. In this example I want 70% Venison. Venison 1.36kg or 3lb x 30= 40.8kg or 90lb 40.8kg/70 or 90/70 = 0.58kg or 1.28lb I would use 0.58kg or 1.28lb or pork. I would also use a much fattier pork, like belly trim that is close to 50/50 otherwise your sausage will be too lean.
