My daughter and I just did our first kielbasa and we made the traditional Easter kielbasa called kielbasa biala, or white kielbasa, which is a fresh sausage so no smoking involved. I was more of a blind guide and she did all the work. And she loved it. So she went on Eric's Two Guys and a Cooler site and decided she wants to get a smoker like the one he uses for smoking sausage. He uses a Smokin-it digital electric smoker that allows you to set up a sequence of time and temperatures, so the temp can start very low and then after a period of time it goes up for another time period, up to 5 or 6 such time periods.
I found that smoker on the Smokin-it website and even the smallest one, the Model #2D, is a little pricey. So I went in search of other, hopefully less expensive, smokers with that feature but I am having a hard time find any - but it may just be a matter of not knowing what they are called. I see a lot of smokers with PID, but I never see anything in those product descriptions that describe this "programmable" feature. Is this a rare feature? What should I look for in product descriptions to identify ones that have this feature? Does anyone have specific recommendations of smokers with this feature?
Thanks to anyone who can explain all this to me.
