Your link says the following:
Normally this will take about 1 hour for each inch of thickness, but that could vary depending on how well you maintain your fire and also how many times you open the smoker to take a peek. Mine took about 2.5 hours, which was right on target with its 2.5 inch diameter.

That timing is for a smoker though Pat - not a barbecue

Yes, I suppose there is a clue in there! It's all that mention of the BBQ sauce that instilled it in my brain. Just cut it in half when you've charcoaled it all round and have a look!

Well, I've got the thermometer thing in there. It's still in the blue bit just now I've eated raw sausagemeat. It's no big deal.

I wonder if piercing it through with a carving fork would have helped. Trouble is - Sausage meat is very dense. Probably acting like a big wad of cotton wool.

Verdict - mmmmmmmmmmm Needs to be a bit tighter bound and I wasn't too keen on this particular sauce - a bit sweet.

Well, I've got the thermometer thing in there. It's still in the blue bit just now I've eated raw sausagemeat. It's no big deal. Me too. No bad thing happened. But I panicked for a few days that I was going to die anyway.

Why is it that Vegetarians, keep having to tell you that they're Vegetarians - even when they know that caring individuals will take note of this, the first time they're told!! Chocolate Biscuits and Crisps indeed! ......and people wonder why I worry!

Because people keep saying = = Aw - Don't tell me you're not eating again! = = or something as if there's another dark reason for not eating bacon and eggs.
