Best type of sausage for smoking?
Just wondering what your experience is with various types of sausages is.
Do some just work better than others? I prefer ones with a bit more of a textured bite. Ones where each bite may have a slightly different taste due to certain spices being more prevalent i.e. cracked pepper, whole fennel, etc... What are your thoughts please. One final question I'll be cooking for about thirty people this fall and would YOU fix several different types or just one? The sausage is just part of the meat services. There also will be Butt, Ribs and Chicken thighs. Thanks,

I might do a chicken sausage and a pork sausage, but that would be it.

Pork sauasge = breakfast sausage. Chicken sausage = healthy low calorie breakfast sausage. See I'm out on the little bitty limbs. My perception is probably wrong and I'm sure someone will enlightened me. At least I hope so! Is the Polish fine grained? Boudin Good stuff. Finding a great one is hard to do here. Johnsonville is a good sausage. The Butt will be pulled. The Chicken thighs finished with BBQ sauce. The ribs dry and sauced. What I'm looking for is a forth dimension in taste and texture. Why? I don't know! I have no logic! BUT I appreciate y'alls help!

Johnsonville? At leas step up to Klement's or even better if you can find Usinger's You will thank me.
Kielbasa take smoke very well and have a fine grind and firm texture. You may also consider a chorizo or andouille for something with some spice. Italian sausage will also take smoke well but you have to find GOOD Italians or it is horrible smoked

As a rule though which sausages are or have a coarser texture. I know the boudin does but what else? Quote:

What seems to always be a hit or conversation point is a good alligator sausage, not sure if you can find any around you are not. Sounds like there is going to be some good food and you are defiantly not waiting until the last minute. Good luck....... |

Home made sausage is the best. I prefer to make my own andouille for smoking.
