Elk summer sausage
« on: March 12, 2023, 09:47:54 AM »
Spring cleaning the freezer and made 65 lbs of summer sausage from a elk from last fall.  Got the stainless insulated oven from my cousin and just a propane burner in the bottom...works awesome.  Put some smoker pellets in an old cast iron skillet and wrapped in aluminum foil
beer---it's whats for dinner

Does the smoke penetrate your casings? I've cooked them with and without smoke and didn't notice a real difference.

That unit is very well insulated...started at 140 and 2 hours later stopped at 180.  Once the temp is around 180ish you can fine tune it with the damper on the chimney

very nice, I have always wanted to build a large smoker. even one that I could use a very small fire in the bottom for heat and smoke incase the power went out for a long time.  I'll probably just buy a heating element they sell online.

Hey! I'm not a complete idiot I have parts missing. Though sometimes I wonder.

If you want to make God laugh tell him your plans.
