Steps:

• Soak your hog casings in water according to package directions. While casings are soaking, make your sausage.

• Hang the sausages and allow to air dry at room temperature for an hour or so, then transfer to the refrigerator to dry overnight.
• When ready to cook, set Traeger temperature to 180℉ and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes. For optimal flavor, use Super Smoke if available.
• Place the sausages directly on the grill grate and smoke for 2 to 3 hours, or until they reach an internal temperature of 155℉. Enjoy!
