I've noticed thet you are not using the v pan in several of your sausage runs. Does this affect the temps in the bradley in any way (Hot spots) ?

I notice i get better smoke adhearing to the sausages without the v-tray.

I make a very spicy (lots of black pepper and lots of garlic) andouille for gumbo and jambalaya. I smoke it with sugar cane, if I can get it. I do mine in 22mm to 24mm sheep casings so when sliced it's a small diameter.
I don't have a mild andouille recipe, a stand alone, "tear off a piece and eat it", type of sausage.
Boy that looks good. I think I can smell it too.
