    All. Wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction on this A few months ago I made up a prototype unit out if plywood and 2x4. This smoker worked as a smoker, oven, and dehydrator. I have since put through several hundred pounds of jerky and sausage and the concept is working great...

    Have to share my new smoke house

    I tried some snack stick this weekend, and it worked great.  I did what you mentioned and gradually brought the temp up.  I didn't do much only 10 pounds, and I had it up to 153 in no time and only had to get the smoker temp up to 165.  This is really my first attempt at this type of sausage. ...

    All, When I was a kid living in PA my dad would take all the ground meat from any deer that we got to a guy that would make us a smoked sausage.  When we got it back we would hang it up in the basement or attic and let it dry for several weeks until the outside was all black and ugly looking. ...

    Have to share my new smoke house

    AAAHH yes, that is what I'm worried about, I was getting worried when it got to 180, but I guess I am probably OK to go a little higher.  Most of the sausage recipes that I am looking at require an internal temp of I believe 153.  So question for all of you who make sausage, if I set my temp to...

    Have to share my new smoke house

    I guess I could recirculate the smoke, but I usually cold smoke everything, so I just open up the damper that is above the flex pipe in the stack on top and let the smoke flow without applying any heat.  Then when I am done smoking, I will close the damper and turn on the heat.  For Jerky...

    Have to share my new smoke house

    Here we go, now the pictures are working.  Below are some pics and descriptions.  My only problem so far is that I can't quite get the temp up high enough for sausage.  Works fine for dehydrating jerky.  I am currently using a 110 volt 1500 watt brinkman heating element.  I have a 220 volt oven...

    Have to share my new smoke house

    All, just have to share some pics of my new smoke house that I built.  Used it for the first time last night to make a quick batch of ground jerky, and it worked out great. I have been making venison jerky, and playing around with sausage for many years.  I would always smoke my jerky in a...
