borrowed my small smoker to a friend to do some ring sausage he complained that his sausage turn out black and had to peel the casing off to eat then it still tasted like shit. he asked m if i had left some fish drippings or something in the smoker I said no. well this freind is not good at retuning things so I call him to bring it back 6 months latter when I get it I open up the door to find the plastic handle putty knife I leave in the smoker for cleaning is melted wonder why his sausage tasted bad
