    loose casings

    I think you left it in the ice water bath too long. The ice water bath is just to stop the cooking process - no more than five minutes. After the ice water bath let them hang at room temp for an hour or so then in the fridge overnight. This is what i do with summer sausage and never had a...

    Am I on the right track???

    I have made many batches of summer sausage and all have been done in 10 to 11 hrs.  I start at 120 w/ no smoke for an hour. Raise the temp to about 150 with smoke for 5 hours then raise the temp to 180-200 until I get an IT of 155.  I have a gas smoker and controlling the temp is fairly easy.

    Venison summer sausage?

    I make alot of summer sausage and never had that problem. I am assuming when you talk about a tough rind you mean the outside of the sausage after you remove the casing. The only thing I can think of is you are cooking at too high of a temp or cooking for too long.
