    looking for advice and guidance. I have never smoked foods before and want to learn what is better cold smoking or smoking with a hot fire? I have no equipment yet so recommendations very welcomed for that. This would be a very part-time thing and primarily smoking linked sausages and some chicken occasionally.

        I’d start with videos here for sausage. For smoking brisket, chicken, ribs, etc there is a plethora of videos on youtube from backyard cooks to pros. Also get some cookbooks and get to reading.

            wmjacksoniii Is there one specific thing you are looking to learn about? Cured sausage and smoked brisket have very very little to do with each other, other than they both are smoked. I’d start at Meatgistics university we tried to break down meat processing into a few categories and then gave some introductory “course classes” on it. We did them in the 101, 102, 103, etc., style to try to go over basics first. Let us know if there is something you are looking for that isn’t there.

            Get more help with your processing questions and learn more about processing meat by subscribing to our waltonsinc.com youtube page at https://wltns.link/waltonstv I am a Gorilla, love yourself
