Hey for POPS !

[dirtworldmike]

I was watching a  BBQ show on TV and they showed a famous BBQ place in Texas. The owner said,  Their smoked sausage was beef sausage as true Texas BBQ is beef.

Their smoked beef sausage sure look good. Can't seam to find much info on Texas smoked beef sausage. Got any ideas on recipes or how it's made?? 

I would assume it's smoked with oak and/or mesquite wood ?  Thanks Mike.

Hello Mike.  Actually the Tx. Hill Country sausage is a mix of pork and beef.  I have been working on a recipe.  It is not perfected yet but may be a place for you to start and then tweak it to your tastes.  If you are going to err, add more fat than you think.  Dry sausage isn't very nice.Hope this helps.  Keep Smokin!
