How do you know when sausage is fully cooked?

To determine whether it's done, you can measure the internal temperature with a meat thermometer. Sausages should reach 155–165°F (68–74°C). Alternatively, boiling them before cooking in a pan or on a grill can ensure that they're thoroughly cooked and remain moist.

How do you smoke fresh Polish sausage?

Stuff sausage into the casings, tie in rings, and hang in a 130 degree F smoker with the vent wide open until the casings are dry. I like to use hickory dowels to hang the sausage in the smoker. Once the casings are dry, gradually increase the temperature of the smoker to 160-165 degrees F and leave the vent 1/4 open.
