Homemade sausage smoker ideas.

[ducemsh2]

Im looking into making a homemade smoker dedicated to sausage. I had an idea to use an old refrigerator or upright freezer with a electric range at the bottom. If it is plastic, which is the easiest to find for me, would I need to remove the plastic if it is just used at low temps for sausage? Any other ideas to build a smoker would be much appreciated.

Plastic is not good for a smoker. There is a "Smoker Build" section and a lot of refrigerator builds in it and a lot of good ideas. Use the search bar and look around, some are really nice!

Any chance of finding an old fuel oil drum. Cut it open and add a pipe burner and some hangars to hang sausage. If you dont want to deal with metal then I would build a smoke shack out of wood

You can smoke in a gas grill with good temp control and one of Todd's Amazin' smoke generators...
