Looks really good.  I have some elk brats and would like to smoke them but never done it before. Could you offer any help on how?

for longer cooler smokes you need to use cure #1for safty reasons...if ya need more info on that i can help you with the formula. if you want to hot smoke, i would make sure you get through the danger zone in 3hrs.....a realistic time would be around 1.5 hrs @ 250+ for an internal temp of 165.

Thanks for the help. The sausage is already made so I was going to hot smoke it, didn't realize you had made yours from scratch.  I want to try making some down the road so I may be back to pick your brain.
