Ordered a half dozen items and all were delivered in great time, except package was missing one item. Called the company and the customer service was excellent. The 1 item mustâve shipped out that evening because I received it two days later.
Ended up making 25 pounds of summer sausage. The hickory skins, hi temp cheese, and a few other spices were all excellent products! Kudos to Sausagemaker.com, will definitely order from the company again.

To me, encapsulated citric acid is a must when making snack sticks or summer sausage. It adds that tangy flavor that simulates cured meat from a mom and pop old world butcher. If you haven’t tried adding it to your snack sticks before, you gotta give it a shot!
I wish there was more in the package. Other places sell 4 ounces for cheaper, while this is 3 ounces for more expensive.
