New techniques. New to me equipment. Fail! Huge bag failure, and casing separation. Second attempt. Better looking. But taste/texture profile off.So what was the failure at the summer sausage? I am curious because I just did my first batch of summer sausage.

3rd go. New and better vacuum bags. Adjusted temp and time. Now I have a winner. I've done a lot of SS with both the smoker. And oven. With great results.
Read this thread. Then this one.
My third go at summer sausage SV style.
Ok. I'm sure quite a few folks caught my threads in regards to my 2 dismal attempts at SV summer sausage. So, in getting better prepped for this. I bought some silicone vacuum bags that another member discussed. Mixed up enough ground beef, 70/30 for a 5 pound batch. I used TSM kit for this...www.smokingmeatforums.com
You've come to the right place my friend. How was your first go at it?Thanks. I am new to making summer sausage and I want to learn all I can.
I thoght it was good. I was nervous at first but I grew to really like it. I think I could have had more jalapenos in it though. It was jalapeno cheddar pork summer sausage.You've come to the right place my friend. How was your first go at it?

I took stuff from different recipes and substituted ingredients. And did 6 pounds of pork so had to do the math for the proportions.What recipe did you use? We are always looking for ideas.
