A meat support for supporting sausage in a smokehouse has a rotor mounted for rotation upon a support vehicle. The rotor has a plurality of horizontally extending pockets formed therein, each of which is proportioned to receive and support a sausage with its longitudinal axis horizontally oriented. The rotor is driven about its longitudinal axis such that the sausages which are located in the pockets of the rotor are caused to rotate about their own longitudinal axis. This rotation of the sausages when horizontally oriented serves to reduce moisture losses and to maintain a uniform moisture distribution throughout the sausage while it is cooked.
