Clever actually! Perfect for that bloody Mary... and get your mind out of the gutter. Meat Straw is just that, a straw made of meat (Slim Jim). Meat Straw how-to |

You sure this isn't a sex thing? That was my first thought when I read the title when a buddy of mine sent it to me but hey, using tools, meat, adult beverages, what could be wrong? (for those of you still worried if its NSFW - it is TOTALLY safe for work)

quote:Please note that if using the Slim Jim Straw to quaff a 100-point wine, this straw pairs best with a Cabernet or Malbec. It is not recommended for off-dry Johannesburg Riesling.

Actually I've been aware of this trick for a while now... my first concern would be to find a decent meatstick, something a LOT better than Slim Jim, yuck... Your local charcuterie should be able to produce a product 100 times better than the regularly available stuff! A Bloody Mary/Caesar from scratch, ideally with homegrown tomatoes, is SOOOO tasty. The best I've had was from the Pinewood Social in Nashville- had 2 with an amazing brunch. Alas, no meat stick...

Nate, If you ever have to get a Cystoscopy, it will feel like the camera is about that size. DAMHIK |

I believe the "slim jim straw"has been copyrighted. Credit where credit is due, and this is almost certainly not the first use of a meat snack straw. I bet a Dollar some bartender came up with this idea a long time ago, but with the magic of the intraweb, AFAIK these guys get the commercial credit. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/08/14/beef-jerk y-straws_n_1776131.html |

That said, clean and dry the drill bit, take your time and don't hurt yourself. I've tasted a Bloody Mary through one, but didn't eat the straw after, ( it was a nice lady who offered me a sip ) and I can say it tasted good. I didn't get a control sample with a plastic straw though. Darn good Bloody Mary, Lovely Lady. All in all a very positive experience. (Message edited by aesquire on November 05, 2015) |

Wonder if I can make one out of bacon. Double wrap around a spray-released aluminum rod, string wrap it like a roast and bake it??? Science project in the works (if I can find quarter inch Al rod in the machine shop) |

Whoa, man. I saw that hottie you were with at the bar last night. I don't wanna talk about it. Come on man talk. Drop it. Just drop it. And run if a strange woman wants to show you her meat straw. |
