Visited the factory outlet store for Jack Link’s<\/a> this summer; \u00a0makers of jerky, beef sticks and other snack products. \u00a0Ended up with a couple of large bags of bits and pieces of beef sticks, a beef\/pork snack stick ala Slim Jim’s.<\/p>\n

Was trying to think of something to do with them, and ended up pouring a cup of them in a food processor with one egg and two T of bread crumbs – made into a patty, fried in a skillet.<\/p>\n

The fail part was one egg wasn’t enough to hold the mixture together, and as you can see from the second foto below, there’s a lot of fat that comes out in the cooking, making it even harder for the patty to stay together.<\/p>\n

Flavor- I liked it. \u00a0As beef snacks are already cooked (smoked), the pan frying is overkill, and the patty gets very dry from the cooking process. \u00a0It does develop a nice crust, tho. \u00a0 I’ll try again sometime in the future with a different recipe.<\/p>\n
