Anyone smoked Hot Italian Sausage?

[grilling24x7]

The smoker is going to be running tonight and I was thinking about tossing a few homemade hot Italian sausage links on for an hour or two and then grilling them to finish.


Anyone done this? I'm a bit concerned the hot Italian spices may not jive with the smoke. But then again everything is good with smoke!

Should be fine. I've smoked hot and sweet sausage on numerous occasions, never an issue.

I almost always toss some Italian sausage on at the end of a cook. Awesome!!

They are awesome, and usually don't even need the grilling to finish if part way through you push them towards any hot spots if you have em'.

With everyone else on this, it's uber. One of the first things I did when I made my own batch of Italian sausage was smoke a pound of it, and throw it in some red sauce for pasta. The whole family approved.

Italian sausage is almost what my smoker was made for, I usually hang some around when I am doing a Turkey or a couple chickens! :mod:

I love smoked Italian sausage. I usually smoke extra because it is great in spaghetti sauce.
