For those of us who don't make sausage I just wanted to throw out a recommendation for the beef smoked sausage and polish sausage that they carry at my local Sam's club. It comes in a twelve pack for just under $12. The brand is a label that says Kielbasa. So far we have had really great results smoking them, grilling them on my gas grill, and roasting them over an open fire at the beach. Nice crunch to the casing and the spices are very good. I hope this helps.
