    Hey you Lang guys

    What temp do you run your warmer to hold meats? I usually serve right out of the cooker but the need for me to hold meat for several hours has come up.

    Sausage Guru's

    I've been smoking Italian sausage for a friend who uses hog casings. I don't think I get the smoke penetration I should get into the sausage also they are very chewy. My question is: would I get better smoke penetration with an other type of casing and not be so chewy?
