What is a good beef sausage to use in jambalaya?

Based on my limited experience, don't do it. Beef sausage has always broken up into smaller bits which causes a less than desirable texture for the whole jambalaya.

I've done it with sam's smoked beef sausage and seared both sides and set aside and did the roux with some success. Some of the Texas sausage that are more courser seems to fall apart easier. The one from sam's is a finer grind.

You talking about this stuff? Always thought the only people who bought this were people up north who don’t have access to good locally produced smoked sausage.

I've been using Vernon's smoked sausage for years to make jambalaya. We moved to Texas 4yrs ago and with a recent promotion it appears that I'll have less chance to return to LA to stock up.

Any good suggestions on sausage I could supplement with that can be found in Texas?

I’m avoiding the facepalm parts of this thread but for beef sausage …
