Hot links on the Mini

thillin · Mar 10, 2008

Firesd up the mini egg and threw on a pack of JC Potter hot links. Cherry for the smoke. Picks to come.

Also made a temp handle bracket for the egg. Havn't been able to schedule in time to make the bends in the SS rod. So I hand bent what I had lying around. Here's the "prototype". Still need to find out what I need to finish the wood with.

L O V E Hot Links....usually burn em on the grill and serve em up on quartered tortilla slices for a snack, never smoked em before....cant wait to see pics and try myself

Got a call and had to pull the links off the egg early. They did pick up some smoke though, but no pics. But I just threw a 8lb butt on the large egg for an over nighter. I'll only be able to get like 7 hours of sleep

With that angle sure to bend the ends of that rod completly around when you put the finished ones on.In fact I wouls make them a bit longer.

The round stock that will make the handle is about 3 times as thick as what is pictured. And will be wider than the wood handle. So it will be more of a 90 degree angle, and will be sort of "spring loaded" into the brackets.

Coat it in mineral oil, the handle that is!!!!

I use teak oil that I get at HD to treat wood handles on my cookers and the walking sticks that I make. Multiple coats leave a nice glossy marine grade finish.

Thought this thread was about hot links but I got handles. I'm confused.

Call me and use the vise to bend the stok for the handle.

Cabot Australian Timber oil for the handle.

No pics of the linnks, so they didn't really exist. :biggrin:
