i have used this to due salami i was able to hang i think 6 links at a time they weighed about 3 pounds each . and are around 15 inches longthe hangers at the top of the unit are great for this purpose and it is tall enough you could easily use one of the racks and hang a second layer of links bye tiying them of to it

No, its not structurally strong enough or wide enough. Hanger rack is only about a foot in diameter.

Yes you can. I have a Masterbuilt 30" smoker and the stand is perfect for it. I leave my smoker unattached for portability but the stand works great1

You can, but at some point you would have to open the smoker and remove both the grates and the drip pan to add additional smoking chips to the platform that sits on the heating element and then put everything back. You might think that you could just pile on a lot of chips on the platform if you want to smoke longer, but the advice I read (mostly on the Amazon reviews but also at the Old Smokey site, as I recall) says that you don't want to overfill the chips or you'll get a funny taste.

If you are sure that the probe/wire will not go above 392F in your smoker, then certainly!

Each rack will hold about 10 legs quarts depending on the size. cooking time @ 250 degrees may be about 1.5 hours. After about a hour check for internal temp of 165 degrees. Myron Mixon has a great book on smoking which can help you alot.

It depends on how thick your food is. The tray sits on top of the wood chips and you just need to be sure that you can still slide the cover of the smoker over everything. Also, the granulated ones get smokey a lot faster. Other than that, I don't see why not.

Michael Hoffman said in another response that he did it. I have never tried. I do my ribs on my Weber Smoky Mountain smoker. I don't see why you couldn't do this and even with St Louis ribs but it would take some special effort to get them to stay on the spit. I think the normal 2 prong forks on the spit would be inadequate. Maybe that's why Michael said he used quite a few skewers. Where there's a Weber and a will it probably can be done.dch

Manufacturer claimed you can but I never tried. In my case it never worked as the pressure smoker. Lid never sealed proper.

You could, but shouldn't. I tried it once, made a big mess. A smoker needs to be seasoned, you rub down the inside with canola oil and get it hot, and a charcoal fire in the cooking area would make the food taste weird when you smoke again. This is a great smoker for the money, I love it

I don't know if it's a case of how many pounds. There are 6 racks and they are spaced about 4-5 inches apart. I can smoke 2 whole chickens on one rack but I split them in half after brining. Keep in mind, there is a cold smoke attachment for fish and cheese among other things. The only way to smoke salmon.

You could if you were stuffing bulk bags but if you would be using it for sausage you would want to grind then mix seasoning and then stuff. It has stuffing tubes but I haven't used them I prefer using a stuffer.

Buy 2 extra racks and you can squeeze in 4 briskets. I've done six pork shoulders. I don't bother with the water tray that comes with it for that much me at. I use the large aluminum trays from Costco. It will rest properly on the frame on the lower part of the smoker. I wrap the grease tray in the bottom in aluminum foil for easy cleaning. Great little smoker.

Plenty of room! I use a rack for the ribs so that they stand up during the smoking process. Smoke them at 200 degrees or less. Great recipes on Google...

I don't know if we put exactly 25 pounds in or not, but it worked great for us. We butchered 2 hogs and used this for our sausage and it was great. It saved us a lot of time and did a great job of mixing.

Yes you can no problem. Another set of forks is nice but if you don have them I have just rapped them together with butchers twine and works fine. Thats how I have done it but as one other mentioned the metal sKewers would work too. I think the product said 14 lb. weight limit but I have done a 22 pound turkey with no issue.

Anything is possible. But I would not want to carry it up and down the stairs very often. It's pretty bulky to be carrying up and down stairs, and I would be afraid of using the wheels to take it up and down the stairs as it might jar something loose in the smoker.
