Yes Sir ! when I hit about 150deg it started smoking. It took a total of about 5.5 hrs when internal hit 160deg then gave it an ice bath. Tried it today and I was very impressed with the flavor. It took a 12 pack of heffe weiss with my buddies to wipe out a half stick! Now on to snack sticks - thanks for the help !

Making summer sausage for the first time and having a blast, just retired !
Question: my casings are stuffed and ready for the smoker. Most info I’ve read/watched says to start out low and slow 125deg and eventually up to 175deg. My question is how do you get your wood chips to smoke at that low of heat ?
Thanks - Uncle Dave
