    Touchy temp control question

    Hi all, I have a 30" Smoke Hollow electric smoker and the temp control is driving me nuts! It's has a 1500 watt element and maybe that's too much for what I've been trying to do. I can barely turn the controller dial and it goes way over what I think it should. Right now, I'm smoking venison...

    Preserving natural cased sausage?!?

    I made some last week end from a recipe posted by Woodcutter for Wisconsin brats. They were very good. You might check them out. Also, I did a search for brat recipes just typing brats in the search bar. I made mine with 50% pork and the rest deer meat.

    Snack stick ?

    Something to eat while I'm waiting for the sticks. Ohh wee. It has some bite. Had to dry the jerky in the oven because the rack wouldn't fit in the smoker. Doh! Oh well, it's all good.

    Thanks to both of you for your replies. I went ahead and stuffed the casings (21mm) tonight. Will rest in fridge overnight and get up early (6am) and get them in the smoker. I'll  post some Qview  here when done. Andy
