    numbers are not adding up here

    hmm thats fast, my guess would be your smoker was running hot...? Did the fat render out of the sausage? Are the casings loose? If you are running hot and it cooked that fast then the fat should have metled out some.

    Smoking summer sausage

    you already have it stuffed? If so then You are good to go for at least 24 hours. If you didnt have it stuffed it could be a problem because as it sits, the cure works and the sausage gets sticky and can be very difficult to stuff. I always grind, mix and stuff one day then smoke the next...

    Anyone built an electric UDS?

    you could do that, I would look at buying an electric converter from brinkman. Its the same element that is in the Brinkman electric smoker. The cord runs out the bottom of the plate under the element, so you would need to build a type of shelf about 3" off the bottom to set the element plate...

    Trimming Spare Ribs...What now?

    Rub both just like the ribs and smoke it next to the ribs, it will get done quicker, but it makes for tasty apetizers to snack on till the star of the show is done...it may not make the best eats for the guests, but for common folks doin the cooking its not too bad

    what happened?

    hmm. I've never wraped a butt in anything, unless I was transporting it, or holding it for dinner a couple hours away. Smoke it to over 190 then let sit on the counter until its cool enough to handle and rip it apart. Dont overthink it.
