Title: Finishing German Sausage
Post by: callturner on September 13, 2025, 07:30:41 AM: What are your secrets? Once I get the temp over 100 internally it takes hours and sometimes it greases out before a satisfactory internal temp, Which means ruined sausage! How do you do yours?

Years ago I did some summer sausage that turned out that great using an oven, these guys use a pellet smoker.
