From what I've been reading, an ice bath after pulling off the smoker at 148, will reduce the propensity of the sausage to wrinkle.
Also, NFPDM not only binds the meat but also allows for retention of fat juices so the meat won't dry out.

Yeah I took these a little higher than 148F in temp and did ice bath. I used wild pork meat so I think I took it to a temp where parasites are known to die just in case which I believe is low 150's.
If it was farm pork I believe I will try the 148F temps.
It also had NDFM so was rocking that for sure :D

Yeah I prefer NDFM. I've used Soy Isolate. It's easier and cheaper to just rock the NDFM :D
