Very happy with it. Thank You!  But only thing I'd like is to figure how the commercial stuff is so smooth and no wrinkled casing. LOL

Did you use a binder in the mix?

Also putting back in fridge will reduce the green weight and add moisture to the casings which will make them swell.

Dont sweat the wrinkles, I get em to.....adds character  ;D

Well used about 2 oz. of powdered milk as binder. Then had to leave in refrigerator for two days before smoke. Brought to almost room temps before smoke.  Does this sound ok?
