hotkarl LOVE the sponges! In my opinion that is the 3rd best thing we have don here (#1 being tender jerky and #2 finishing in water and Parksider really gets the credit for that)

In 10 years of smoking sausage and snack sticks Iâve never came close to the results at home that I have now. All thanks to you guys and the community here. Lifetime Waltonâs customer earned for sure!
Thank you!
Now if only I could figure out how to load my pictures in the right orientation from my phone

Jonathon the controller is from Auber Instruments. I ran PID controllers for 8 years and wanted the WIFI / App capability and also program capability to help drive consistency. It is capable of handling 1800 watts but I knew that I would be drawing more than that running 2 heating elements with fans from a convection oven so I hooked up a solid state relay in line to handle to load. The controller has 6 steps that can be programmed to jump to the next step based on time or temp from probes. It also lights the igniter in my smoker attachment when programmed to.
The other app shown is for the Fireboard thermometer. I purchased this so I could have a thermometer that I could move around to the grill or oven, access remotely and log sessions . It really helped me become aware of the heat variation that I had in my custom 1950 International Harvester fridge / smoker that was my grandfathers. This is why I added the convection oven fans and also the two fireplace fans.

Jonathon hi am from the Caribbean my family donât eat pork or beef so I make chicken hotdogs but I would like to put a filler in them and get them the reddish/pink colour normal sausage are can u help thanks
roxy2500 Do you use any type of cure? Iâd recommend trying some Sure cure, you donât need much. 1 ounce is enough for 25 lbs of meat.

AdamCA yes I do use Walton sure cure but its still white in colour and my kids donât want to eat it cause they are a custom to reddish hotdogs
roxy2500 How do you cook them, do you smoke them? Other than that I donât have any ideas, hopefully someone with more experience can offer some ideas.

Jonathon my wife is going to kill me but Iâve finally got some use out the 2 roasters that we got for wedding presents 9 years ago. Way more consistent than using the grill or gas Turkey roaster.
hotkarl I have thought about using a roaster for the water finish but wasnât going to buy one if it wouldnât work. Apparently it worksâŚhow well does it work? I wanted to try some summer sausage in one.

blackbetty61 Itâs much easier to control than adjusting a burner on the grill. I get the water temp to 165 and then throw the sticks or sausage in. The water temp will drop but comes back nicely. Whatâs been pretty crazy to me is once the water temp is back at 160 the meat is also done. I wouldnât suggest changing any temps on the roasters once you have it set.

roxy2500 The cure will burn a red protein red but it is not going to change the color of chicken to that red. It has to do with the hemoglobin type of content. Unfortunately, other than adding an edible dye I donât know how to get a chicken stick that color.
hotkarl Thatâs awesome, and I always go by the âwhat she doesnât knowâ method of using things of hers or âoursâ for uses outside their intended purposes! That is a seriously sweet set up and it looks like youâve taken a few tips and made some awesome products with it!
Finishing in water is just better, it is faster, doesnât dry it out and it is easier to control (like you said), I think more people donât do it because a) they donât have a sous vide cooker or b) they donât want to mess with a turkey fryer type thing like Parksider uses or doing it on the stove is hard to maintain a consistent temp. A roaster will solve that and I think it is something that a lot of people have! Iâm going to look to see if I canât get us to stock a model to sell for this very purpose!
