I’m venturing out on a project that I haven’t done in years. I can’t even remember the last time I smoked sausage.
So I bought some sausage from a friend locally and seasoned it with Cajun seasoning and paprika. The Cajun stuff has lots of herbs in it not just cayenne. Then I mixed it really well and pushed it down into cotton sausage bags.
I’m smoking it at about 80*F because I don’t want it to cook, just get that smoky flavor. This is called a cold smoke. It will take several hours, maybe til night time.
I’m using apple wood trimmed off our trees.
After it’s done I’ll cook some and let you know how it is.

How did it turn out??!!
Wonderfully! It tastes really good. I made red beans, sausage and rice this evening and used it. Approval all around the table! I’ll post a photo.
