    When hot smoking, final temp where it can be eaten right away but not render fat?

    I'm confused about this, When hot smoking cured sausage, Is it cooking to be eaten when taken out at 160F or is removing it at that temperature mean it will still require further cooking later? So if I want to cook it to the highest temperature, with out rendering the sausage, when should it be...

    new strategy on my andouille/mes

    Closing Remarks; As I cut up the pork butt I noted that, this particular PB was heavily fatted compared to last one. With adding the pork fat addition the texture is in the range of bologna. I'm thinking about switching to pork shoulder which typically has little fat and then add pork fat as...

    Stove and Two Door Commercial Freezer

    This one is amazing and I'm still using it, converted gas kitchen stove to charcoal.  To left is my 19" Weber with cut down and resized spacer from a 55 gallon barrel. Can make mega chicken wings in it! The one I have no more, I cooked a 165 pound whole hog (in four chunks).

    Update: After the trial run I went into my man cave to ponder. It's Friday and we are looking at 4 inches of snow here in the Carolina's tomorrow. So for now I'm not focused on the Amazn. Stopped by the grocery to purchase more Pork butt and fat back to make another batch of andouille.  Going by...

    MB's official statement on wet or dry chips.

    According to Masterbuilt website; https://masterbuilt.com/product/20078715-30-digital-electric-smoker-3/ "You may use dry or pre-soaked wood chips in your smoker. Dry chips will burn faster and produce more intense smoke. Chips pre-soaked in water (for approximately 30 minutes) will burn slower...

    I've Never Used A Stuffer.

    I've never used a Stuffer. I cube the meat and fat, mix liquid with dry seasoning, mix all well, set in fridge an hour, then grind and stuff at same time. Why would a home sausage maker need a suffer?

    Salted Fat Back, the only steady source of fat.

    The only reliable source of pork fat is salted fat back.  I found a package that showed a salt per serving of 110 grams. The least that I could find.  I'm looking for some advice on using it from anyone using it also. My guess is that after rinsing off all external salt that I might not need to...

    I think I'm disappointed

    I think I'm disappointed and didn't research the MasterBuild smoker I bought. I assumed that it would go low enough to actually perform smoking at less then 150F.  I really wanted something that would be great at making solid cured smoked sausage. That being said, I got it, I used it, it can't...

    Been q'n a long time, my first MES arrived two days ago.

    What is this thing!? A hot smoker a cold smoker? Nothing I've found from two good sources indicates it's either. What is in severely missing is what to do with the temp range, what; 180F to 275F.  Four recipes in the book and all use 225F...
