    Smoking cheese questions

    I have a smoky mountain. There is only a top vent. This is my concern as I do not think there is good air flow. I usually do not get a lot of smoke from the wood box that's way I bought the pellet tube hoping I would get more smoke. However, that didn't work either so I'm guessing there is not...

    Fassett's breakfast sausage ?

    Well I tried my luck at making Fassett's breakfast sausage and I'm glad I did. Wow... this stuff is really good. I did half regular and the other half spicy. Well spice enough for my wife I guess. I think a little more heat would have been really good. I added 1 1/2 tbs of crushed red pepper...

    Canadian Goose SS/Snack sticks - Ratio Question - Update

    1 more question.... Do I need to add water to the water pan when smoking snack sticks or summer sausage? After everything I have read it seems you want to dry out the casings and meat so adding moisture might not be a good idea... I don't know just thought I would ask.
