This sausage cooks up nicely, the spices are great, the smokiness in it is just the right amount and the texture is awesome. I hope that the casing is natural. I love everything about this product. If there are any other products that is coming out I would love to try samples of it.

Hillshire Farms the quality of your smoke sausage has deteriorated to the point of tasting cheap. The flavor is not the issue. Your problem seems to be one that is directly related to cost savings. At one time you made a decent sausage and there was no questions about it. Now in your efforts to make unreasonable profits you have cheapened your product to the that your product quality is noticeably inferior to what it once was. This change in my mind is fairly recent. I don't know for certain in terms of months , so I'll leave that determination to you because I'm certain you know when it occurred. I just know that the last three times that I purchased your sausage, I was disappointed in the product. The mouth feel is terrible. I continued to purchase your product thinking I just got a suspect batch trying to give you a chance to self correct or change directions. I would rather pay more than eat junk putting profits over quality will ruin your business in the long run. We know the difference and as consumers can only let you know that you have taken a wrong turn. I hope you get back to making good sausage instead of just making good money.

I slice them and use them in a lot of dishes including baked beans, fried cabbage and stir fries. You need to heat it well but do not over cook.I just trow mine in with my veggies when I stir fry them. I also cut them length wise, pop them in the micro for about 1 min. Makes a great sandwich for a quick snack

It seems as though the recipe for this smoked sausage has changed a few times over the years. To me it does not resemble the great smoked sausage I remember 20 years ago. I buy it occasionally now and usually regret it when I eat it. I have discovered some different high quality brands that I purchase most of the time now. I am so dissapointed. I once considered Hillshire Farms to be the benchmark of smoked sausage. Not any more. You have lost my respect and most of my business.

I have been eating hillshire farm beef sausage since I was a kid. Were talking about over 30 years. Lately I have bought it and I am sorry it's just not being made with the same quality ingredients!!It feels real soft to the touch. Not a firm sausage. I am so dissapointed to say this used to be my favorite sausage and now it is NOT!! Please go back to your original recipe... Until then U have lost my family as customers.

We've used this product for decades. There was a comfort dish my grandma would always make for us. Honestly we probably ate too much of this stuff. But now, now it's different. I'm positive the recipe used to be pork, beef and chicken. It's turkey now and the texture is definitely different. Regardless, it now causes GI issues for some family members (and remember, we've eaten this stuff for decades). When we realized that, we knew we had to stop buying it. Sad that we'll have to find a substitute to make grandma's recipe, but when companies change things that work to (presumably) things that are cheaper, people leave.

We have been eating Hillshire Farms smoked sausage forever since I was a kid and my children have grown up on it. But it seems like this year you have to change the recipe or how it is made. It's not good anymore. Unfortunately we will not be buying it because we don't enjoy it anymore. I've always put the little smokies in my mac and cheese. But they're just not good anymore. This makes me very sad. I wish I could give you a better review. The recipe needs to go back to how it was.

Excellent flavor and value. This brand is the best.

I love the flavor and it's so good in my vegetable soups

Was good value for a big family dinner. If smaller family, may want to repackage & freeze so it doesn't go bad.
