For Small raw sausage links, the chart baseline is 12-15 minutes at 356°F. Adjusted sizes and temperatures are modelled estimates.
What makes chipolatas cook faster or slower?

Can I cook chipolatas from frozen?
The frozen setting gives a starting range. The manufacturer’s general extra 2-5 minutes is a starting adjustment, rather than a tested range for this food. Confirm doneness independently; follow package instructions if they differ.
When should I start checking?
Check at 12 minutes for this setting. Keep cooking if the center has not reached the appropriate safety endpoint or texture. A timer is a reminder to check.
How do I know when chipolatas is done?
Check the center of patties, sausages and meatballs. Ground poultry needs 165°F. A thermometer beats any timer.
