Matthew Odam sees how the sausage gets made at Franklin Barbecue

Yes, @FranklinBbq is now making all of their #sausage in-house now (mostly from trimmings from their delicious #brisket). I talk to Aaron Franklin and "Sausage Queen" Megan Nesland about how they got here and what guests can expect. #bbq https://t.co/TJyv0wMDlP pic.twitter.com/t9fY6lcsYm
