Preparing to do some snack sticks early January and looking for opinions on flavors. Our family has enjoyed both pepperstick and willies sticks but looking to try something different. Was leaning towards the honey bbq but wanted opinions first as the price was a lot more than the other varieties we’ve made. Thoughts and opinions on the various flavors would be appreciated. Thanks

I add 1 1/2 T red pepper flake, 1 T black pepper, 1.5 oz mustard seed, 1 T garlic powder, 3 cups water. You can of course just add hi temp cheese. I like to add wild rice, craisins, and cheddar for my WI sticks. I have replaced the water with Franks hot wing sauce and added hi temp blue cheese for buffalo sticks. they turned out good, but next time I am going to try and use franks hot wing powder for more flavor. You can add jalapeno (I use my home canned ones cut up) and cheddar. My next batch I am going to try and add my homemade BBQ sauce. Just try different things, keep good notes so you know what works and what you want to change. When I try something new, I will do a 5# batch. Good luck and let your creative side come out

I have tried a couple of mixes but I just like my own recipes the best. I need to do some more experimenting and maybe try some other pre-made mixes when i find the time.

As a couple others said, the Habanero BBQ is very good. Like twilliams said, not overly hot.

Also really enjoyed the mandarin teriyaki for a family friendly stick. Just don’t inhale while mixing or you’ll be sneezing like a banshee.

It is sweet with a smokey tang. It has a lot of sugar like the Honey BBQ but not nearly as expensive.

So I can’t help you with past the base seasonings. But when those buck sticks warm up and that pepper jack cheese becomes creamy, boy howdy you can’t just eat a few!

That is on the agenda for me coming up in January as well.

It’s my wife’s favorite. My favorite is Bourbon Peppercorn, fajita, ranch and dill pickle. If you like a little heat then Habanero BBQ is a good choice. It’s not as hot as you would think being Habanero. You really want to kick up the heat add some ghost pepper hi temp cheese to it.
