    The water pan bleathery mentioned works great. If you start with it full of ice, it will help hold the lower temp longer. Just have to keep an eye on it as it might need topped off after it melts.

      I’ve been making some different fresh sausages, but now I’m dying to try my hand at kielbasa. I’d like to make some fresh & smoked, but I only have a Weber Smokey Mountain smoker. I’m concerned about the cook schedules and how low & consistant I can keep the temp. Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks

      bleathery Welcome to the neighborhood, you will enjoy this community for certain as there is a lot to learn. I want to help you get off to the right start as well, make sure you pick “Team Blue” for your profile, it will help you immensely. There is just so much out there right now & so much detail, all of it helpful. However, just starting out I would say keep it simple while you develop your techniques. Then you can venture out into some of the other areas & there is much fun & deliciousness to be had.

        bleathery welcome. I’m sure along with the advise already given, you will find meatgistics people are ready to help you make the best product. I have been a meatgistic’er for over a year and have not seen an unkind remark here. There are some fairly small electric smokers out there. Check offer up and facebook if price is a concern. You may find one under 75 bucks. Good luck with all your meat projects.

                orange and blue are just jabs , a digital electric smoker is easy to control the temp. on and by adding the cold smoking attachment helps a lot

                                          Lol! Another sabotage I put in for Team Blue a long time ago. Probably at least a year ago. Once you join Orange, you can’t leave! I guess I can change that now though.
