Preparation Steps
- 1
Prepare the Meat Mixture
In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken thighs, pork fat, minced garlic, smoked paprika, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and salt. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
- 2
Prepare the Casings
Soak the natural hog casings in cold water for about 30 minutes to soften. Rinse them well under cold running water to remove any salt.
- 3
Stuff the Sausage
Using a sausage stuffer, carefully stuff the meat mixture into the prepared casings, being careful not to overstuff. Tie off the ends of the sausages with kitchen twine.
- 4
Prepare the Smoker
Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C). Add wood chips to the smoker box for flavor.

Smoke the Sausages
Place the sausages in the smoker and smoke for about 2 to 3 hours, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- 6
Cool and Serve
Once smoked, remove the sausages from the smoker and let them cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm or refrigerate to use later.
