Doing some summer sausage for my neighbor. 80/20 all GB, smoking with pecan. Starting at 140* no smoke for 1.5 hours. Bumping to 150* with 5 pucks pecan. Not going to exceed 175* with this summer.



2 full chubs with a mini mie  :D Total just about 4.96 lbs

Looks good so far. That six rack is starting to get some nice coloring in it.

Looks good Nepas.  I'm all out of deer meat, so my next batch will have to be GB too.

I hit the stall point @136* about an hour and half ago. Should be ready to climb again soon.

Got em hanging now and when cool going in the fridge for a couple days.

I was wonderin how quick they would climb with a stall that long, good thing you check on them when you did.

Got the mini mie chub cut up. Not bad looking and taste pretty good.

One thing i wont have my neighbor do when he wants summer or bologna is buy the meat  :-\  He got 73/27 and it has just a bit too much fat content for me.

Would ground chuck do?   They always seem to have a decent price on the fresh ground stuff around here...   I think it is 85/15.

yeah sometimes cheaper is not always better
