Thread: Sausage and Smoke Cooking

The lead TC uses on his strop is organic too lol!

Cherry is one of my favorite woods to use. As said it leaves a more red color to the outside of the meat.
It does produce good heat and a much lighter and sweeter smoke.

know you'll enjoy it Tim

Sitting outside after work, throwing the ball for the dog, cooking some sausages on the Rec-Tec, and catching up on the recent posts. Thought I should contribute something...

I did an experiment tonight and the Cherry is to big and or to wet to smoke good.

I have no problem controlling to the temp I want but then it quits smoking.

It doesn't want to smoke until 250'f +

Gotta spread them out and dry them before more research.

I could put them in my dehydrator.....

Throwing the ball you say--get one of these and then just concentrate on the sausage and catching up here at SRP--

That is hysterical, Roy-That weiner dog and the kid are having a blast. Assuming the owner designed and built that, he must be some kind of mechanical genius. If that were marketed, a lot of people would pay good money for it.

IF I'm not mistaken, when I first found this it said that the guy was an engineer and had designed and built the unit to keep his dog from getting bored while he was at work.

I also 'think' that the dog very quickly figured out how to get it to toss the ball.

I just sent this to my mechanical engineer son who is giving us his very active dog when he moves to Japan on the 1st.

Tell him Overtime Pay is no problem-----As long as the unit is up and running before he leaves the dog with you AND he's trained the dog to use it already.

As I posted here I recently purchased a standard 22" Traeger Grill:

It didn't come with an upper rack which is about 8"s wide so I figured that I'd buy one. Well once it arrived I found that it included these things:



I'm thinking "What the F---" are these for? Well once I read the 'destruction's' I found that it was sold as a 'Retro Rack' /in other words if the unit didn't come with the base (mine did) then you could just drill a hole and screw the base in place.

So I get to thinking to myself--'Self; Would it be possible to install the retro base in the FRONT and add another 8" rack to make ONE additional Big rack?

So I bought another 8" rack 'kit'.

Here's what I ended up with:





And since the front is curved:



The usable area for the top rack is 15" X 22"s. Or as the Big Boys in Marketing would Advertise---330 additional Square Inches or 2.29 Square Feet

I do believe that it'll work.
