I have summer sausage spice blend with sodium erythorbate already added,
can I stuff my sausage after supper then smoke it in the morning ? It would be about 8 to 10 hour between. Thanks -

Thanks, but I was wondering if I could keep it over night or would it hurt the sausage. Right now I don’t have time to do both back to back. I could wait to make it if I had to.

Thankyou.

Sure Gel vs. Carrot Fiber. I have been making summer sausage with venison and pork butt/fat for several years with good success. Only issues have been casing adhesion and small amount of fat inside casing, despite thorough mechanical mixing. Thought I would switch from Carrot Fiber to Sure Gel to see effect. That did resolve the previous issues, but my sausage turned out much denser, more like a bologna. Flavor is spot on. I have had other Summer with this consistency, but prefer a softer consistency, as is more common here in WI. Could the switch in binders be causing this, or is a different cause more likely?

dncerdmann Carrot Fiber absorbs more of the water in your sausage. That may have some kind of effect on the density.

dncerdmann carrot fiber has about 14X the water holding power which will give you a juicier product compared to sure gel. That is one of the reasons it is recommended for fresh sausage.
