I have never done this but am excited to make my own brats with pork and beef and smoke them. I don't like casings so am going to form "logs" (maybe the shape of a Twinkie) and smoke them. My plan is to refrigerate after forming so they can firm up, then place them on the smoker and likely grill a bit at the end to form a crust.
I've done lots of smoking on my Weber but never this. Does anyone have any tips? I worry that the brat log will fall apart. if it works I'll share the recipe and pics! Thank you for any thoughts and/or suggestions!
