    Cold smoking in cold temperatures

    Before we started smoking meat as a hobby people were smoking meat for preservation of meat for the winter and the following summer. Smoke houses with fired up most days during the fall and early winter .

    Cook for a living??

    Sounds to me that you are approaching this with your eyes open and a realistic business plan in place. Remember that under capitalization is the most likely cause of early business failure.

    Cook for a living??

    I can't imagine a harder and more risky way to try to make a living. Trying to sell a perishable product to people with many alternatives is not the business model I would design.

    Wood Sausage Sticks

    Dowels come in many sizes all the way up to 1 inch. I just cut my own on a table saw. 3/4 inch and 2 feet long will support several pounds.

    Poultry Sausage

    I use poultry leg meat, skin and fat in any sausage that would be made with pork. It grinds best if it is soft frozen. This is turkey breast meat cut into chunks and ground chicken thighs seasoned and stuffed into 3¼ inch casings and baked to an internal temperature of 165°F

    Amish style summer sausage.

    That is probably a fermented sausage. This could be a good place to start. http://www.meatsandsausages.com/sausage-recipes/summer-sausage

    smoke strength of woods?

    I think that would depend on the chemicals used. Carbon dioxide will kill all active insects.

    need some advice..

    Sheep casing is used because they are very tender. I have never read any advise for using vinegar in the soak.

    smoke strength of woods?

    We have to be discussing two separate species of tree/wood. Monkey pod is purely tropical but there is a native American tree called the coffee tree that grows large fat pods and has compound leaves.
