Meat Mixers
A quality meat mixer reduces the time you spend mixing your jerky or incorporating sausage ingredients, which speeds up your process time. We offer three meat mixers that can each be powered manually. Optionally, our 25 and 50 pound capacity mixers can be powered electrically by attaching them to an LEM meat grinder.
The LEM meat mixers are constructed of heavy duty stainless steel, which sets them apart from most others
on the market that are made of thin metals that will flex and eventually break. LEM meat mixers are built
to last for years of heavy use.

Stainless Platform Scale to weigh up to 44 pounds (20 kg) of meat in 2 oz increments. The scale

Edible Casings
LEM Edible Collagen Casings: LEM Edible Collagen casings are made of beef protein and take the place of sheep or hog casings. They have a more uniform shape than sheep or hog casings. There is no preparation necessary, just get stuffing!
LEM Natural Casings: There’s nothing like the distinct “pop” of a natural casing. Natural sheep and hog casings should be rinsed well with warm water and soaked for an hour before use. Make sure they’re soft and pliable before use. If you keep the bag sealed after opening, keep the casings salted, and keep them refrigerated, they should last up to a year. Please note that these are natural casings and each will be a unique size and shape.

Jerky
LEM knows that many people enjoy making their own jerky and snack sticks at home so they also have a complete line of jerky making tools and seasonings.
First, we have the How to Make Jerky Complete Guidebook. If it walks, flies, or swims, and is legal to hunt, this book will tell you how to turn the meat into jerky. Learn jerky making techniques used in pioneer days all the way up to modern day. This 144-page book has something for every jerky lover.
Next, you need some seasoning and LEM’s Backwoods Seasonings are the perfect solution. Decide how much meat you want to cure with one packet of seasoning and then choose between Hot, Original, or Pepper Snack Stick Seasoning. The same goes for Jerky Seasoning! Decide which size you want and then choose from Original, BBQ, Hot, Teriyaki, Hickory, Cajun, Mesquite, Jalapeño, and Cracked Pepper. Some flavors are not available in all sizes. Each pack of jerky or snack stick seasoning has a cure packet and a flavor packet.
Then, you need something to actually form the jerky. The 1.5 pound capacity, manual Jerky Cannon will do just that and so will the 3/4 pound capacity Jerky Gun. Easily load meat and insert the piston into the flared end and get to work! The Jerky Cannon and Jerky Gun both come with 2 stainless steel ends: a 3/16" x1-3/16" flat jerky nozzle and a 1/2" diameter snack stick nozzle.
