    Is it necessary to tie the ends of snack stick ropes for hanging in a smoker. I always have and it is rather labor intensive. I’m wondering if I could just cut them to length and leave the ends open, would the meat stay in the casing?

      adoyle We do this on a weekly basis with no issues! If mix good and get good protein Extraction should be no Issues. I know some people do tie for peace of mind so feel free to do that as it wont hurt anything!

        adoyle Yeah, we do not tie any of them closed. You might get a bulb at the end depending on your smoke schedule and moisture content but it’s absolutely not necessary to tie them!

            If you want to cheat you can always zip tie them but I stopped tying them a while ago too.

              adoyle If you want to really speed things up then try finishing them in water. There have been a ton of posts on here about how to do it but I always like to point people to either Summer Sausage Nightmare where it first was brought up by Parksider or to the Meatgistics university Advanced Cured Sausage for steps on how to do this!
