    Sausage got to room temp. Should I toss?

    That's the answer I expected and I agree, it's always best to err on the side of safety. My dogs are very happy with the answer as well because I'll probably fry it up and add it to their food. Back to the store for another 5 lbs. I really appreciate the collective wisdom and willingness to...

    Sausage got to room temp. Should I toss?

    I think I know what the answer to this is going to be but I'm asking anyway. I'm making a summer sausage using 5 lbs of ground hamburger and various spices along with 5 grams of #1 cure.  My procedure was going to be, get it mixed well, place in my outside refrigerator for 24 hours, take it...

    Glad I found you guys/gals.

    Hi, I'm Joe from Lumberton in SE Tx. I'm really looking forward to learning from the group. I'm not exactly a rookie but I've never taken this real seriously either. I have an offset smoker made out of schedule 80 pipe that, once up to temp, is very easy to regulate. Problem is, unless I want to...
