So that inspired me to search for the origin of 'snag'. According to one respondee on a forum, SNAG comes from abattoir slang - skin, nuts and guts. Ew! Click here for the forum.

Had a good bbq meal last night out here at Bedford Weir, near Blackwater, Qld - meat provided by Solo Steve, cooked to perfection by Jules on her favourite new toy - The Weber Baby Q!!!!

You can cook a nice stew in it too Jules. Do everything as normal but no lid on the dish. Put dish on trivet with foil under, close Q lid and cook away, stir a few times to get that Q taste going through. Yummo. Check out "what's cooking". I put a pic in there.

I found these old dictionaries of Australian slang. There is no reference to "snag" in relation to sausages in either of them.
Dictionary of the Slang-English of Australia, and of Some Mixed Languages (Karl August Lentzner, 1892):
For people who don't have a lot of storage space.

The most common reference to the etymology of "snag" is this one (as alluded to in GaryKelly's post):
http://andc.anu.edu.au/australian-words/meanings-origins?field_alphabet_value=241
... in Australia a snag is also a 'sausage'. This sense probably comes from British dialect snag 'a morsel, a light meal'. First recorded 1941."
