    1st venison summer sausage with q view.

    Yes the flavor is excellent. I don't know if I will buy from them again due to the fact the strings broke on the casings less than two hours in. Just happy they all turned out.

    First time for brisket and need help (15 pounder)

    I was thinking Thursday around 8? I know if it gets done early I can wrap it tight with foil and towels and place in cooler. I am going to play it safe and want to start it early so I know it's done. Another question: do I foil at 160*?
