    Regulating a propane smoker.

    I do appologize.  I didn't take any pictures of the maiden voyage.  I did modify one of the racks by cutting every other bar to accommodate the thickness of the sausage, so they could be hung.  It worked out very well.  Awesome flavor, the right moisture, etc, etc. No water pan.  since there is...
