When I made venison hot sausage last year, way to dry when cooked.
So, back to brats and additives. NFDM? Like I said, Rytek adds 2 cups pf SC to his 10# batch.
I'm wanting to make fresh venison brats. I have a 35-40% pork to venison grind.
I'm referencing info from Rytek's book. His recipe, for bratwurst, uses 2 cups of soy concentrate for 10lbs of meat. He states the following earlier in the book, in regards to NFDW and soy conc, "These products...
Just seeing how long of smokes you are getting out of a AMNPS full of your favorite pellets. I'm getting around 6 hours. I think I have TOO much air, I'm getting flaming.

Thanks for al the replies. Yea, I believe it is the mass that's not allowing the chamber to get up to temp. So, I'll get it where I can, then water bath the sausage to temp after smoking.
After a lot of reading and asking stupid questions, I finally threw together a moveable sausage smoke shack. I spent more brain bites then required trying to figure this thing out. So, I’ll let you know what I did, and how it worked out during the first smoke. Primary concern, be able to...

This kinda leads in to a question. Does it really matter what temp the smoker gets up to, if we have a water bath back-up? It was a colder day then my test run.
