Hi all, new here love this forum! I am attempting my first batch of smoked chicken sausage that I will have properly cured with #1 cure. My question is to what internal temperature should I cook these chicken sausages too?

I have alot of experience with smoking Pork and Beef sausages and I smoke those to around 152-160 degree internal. I am just not sure about the chicken as it normally cooks to 170-180 deg. internal.

Thanks for your time!
Andy.

Low and slow is not the way to go with poultry. It must get from 40F to 140F in less than 4 hrs. To do this you will need your smoker around 250F. The minimum temp internal would be 165F I like to go to 170.
