NePaSmoker, what differences do you find between summer sausage stuffed in cloth bags and summer sausage stuffed in fibrous casings?  Can you bring sausage stuffed in fibrous casings up to temperature in a water bath, or do the sausages get too soggy?

The cloth lets the smoke penetrate about 1/8" into the meat over fibrous casings. I have not tried hot water with cloth as it could get mushy. Im not much of hot water the chubs. More members that do this can answer that better.

I really like these casings. They peel so clean.
