Anyone else throw sausage on as a pit snack on long cooks?

I thought it was mandatory? Why would you not throw sausage or some chicken legs on?

Well, it’s not a pit snack, but lunch and long cook are super.

It’s good, but it really depends on your setup. I like a good char on a sausage, and I can’t get that from smoking temps. I was at a gathering the other night and the host used his smoking rig to do burgers, they turned out fine. I threw some linguicia on afterwards, it was good, but not the same without some good blackening.
It’s not super long but chicken takes longer than sausage.

Polish sausage is delicious off the smoker. Perfect snacking. Get a loaf of rye and some brown mustard with that.

Yeah if I’m doing a long cook on a Saturday, I’ll throw on something for lunch. Usually burgers, or bratwurst. Sometimes I’ll do a smoked queso or buffalo chicken dip too.

Who doesn’t cook snacks during a long cook?!

I throw a bag of frozen shrimp in a pan and a stick of butter and garlic sprinkle with some seasoning. Throw in some parsley or cilantro at the end. So good

I usually throw some larger chunks that I’ve trimmed off and have those as snacks.
Or sometimes just get wild with it and throw a rack of “lazy” spare ribs on there with them. Using leftover brisket rub, maybe flip em once but definitely don’t wrap or sauce them

Nope, you’re the first person to have ever thought of that. Nobody else does it.

Oh hell yes, meat candy. I messed up one year and threw some yard bird legs on, went about my normal smoking day stuff, just left the legs hanging out on this brisket smoking chimney of smoke. If anyone has never bit into something that’s been over smoked. Let me tell you, chicken is the 1st one that I found out can and will over smoke. Tasted that bite of a few days I do believe, yeah buddy that one left a mark. Back to my meat candy sausages.

I’ll even do the same type of sausage. Butcher I go to has these. Calls them Tuscan Rope Sausages. Very tasty. Great snack.

One or multiple of these go into open space: Hot dogs, cream cheese, chex mix, cheez-its

Yeah. But only a badass one-piece coil sausage, like that one there. It stays put and cooks perfectly. I personally enjoy crude cutting it and serving it straight off the smoker.
