Reply to comment by gwaydms in TIFU by rating summer sausage in front if my husband. by hyenacry

So pork, I assume? Is it spicy, garlicky, plain-tasting or something else? Do you eat it alone or in a particular way? TIA!

It is usually a mixture of beef and pork. The cornerstone seasonings of summer sausage are curing salt, mustard seed, and garlic. Traditionally it is air smoked, but liquid smoke can be used instead. Most people eat it by itself or with cheese and/or crackers.

Any and all of the above, and with crackers and cheese is my go to. It is often pork, but it can be beef or my favorite, venison.
