Apple Sausage recipe...dried or fresh apples?

[seadog92]

I've seen Len Poli's recipes for apple sausages, and one uses dried apples and one fresh. Has anyone got an opinion....better yet, a great apple sausage recipe that gives me the skinny on which way to go? I'm planning on adding high temp cheddar cheese to which ever way I go.

I dehydrate the apples to a rubbery like texture. Fresh will add too much moisture to the mix.
Here's an old link where I used apples in a batch of sausages.
