How To Make pepper jack cheese sticks

  Working in batches of 6, place cheese sticks in the flour mixture, close bag and shake to coat. Taking one at a time, dip a cheese stick in eggs and then bread crumb mixture; repeat once again. Place breaded stick on a baking sheet lined with a silicone mat or wax paper. When sticks are all coated, transfer them to the freezer for 30 minutes.
