Wishek is good stuff.
Langdon Locker is better.
Double R Meats in Carson is the best.
(IMO of course)

West Dakota meat in Bismarck and Maple Valley locker in Enderlin also has good Sausage.
Speaking of West Dakota...their slogan: Nobody beats our meats........anyone else think that is sophomoric? I have a hard time walking into a store that has that on a sign out front.

How do you have this honest opinion on something that you've never had? o_O
Its just my opinion that i would back up with a bet, thats what wager is a bet. Im sure wishek makes a great sausage but langdon locker has been around for decades.and adding in deer into the sausage makes it even better, i personally like putting it in the air fryer comes out much better then frying in a pan.

I always put a inch or so of water in a frying pan. And cook it that way. There is no clean up to speak off.

This might sound like sacrilege, but Hornbachers actually makes some pretty good sausage. Andouille, hunters, German, country, kielbasa, polish, Cajun all pretty decent.

That 1" of water in a fry pan is a good method. Seems like the casings stay more tender that way, & the meat is nice & juicy.

365 for 12 minutes or atleast 145
The juice just runs out of it, when you cut it up, only that sucks is they wont make a specialty sausage with cheese or jalapeno, you can have them mix it and stuff it yourself

Now that it’s under new ownership their smoked sausage takes on a whole new meaning. It’s the same guy who owns the dispensary next door.

Schmidt sausage in Napoleon is top of the line!! fry sausage is the best
I second Schmidt locker in Napoleon as having the best sausage. I try to pick up sausage and head cheese whenever I'm down there. Their headcheese is perfect. I've had Wishek sausage and its good but not as good as Schmidt locker. Langdon sausage is also excellent.
As for head cheese I think Schmidt locker is the best. I've had some from one the places in Linton, good but not as good. Some from Ashley grocery store, ok but I'd go to Napoleon first. Warehouse grocery in Harvey used to make some really good headcheese but when they got bought out by Leevers the guy that made it retired and took his recipe with him. I've been told they've started making head cheese there again but its not as good.

Also I agree that the airfryer is the best way to make sausage. Typhur Dome 2 is the one I have. When we make sausage, we remove the grate tray and put the sausage right in the pan, set to grill, 350 or so, and about 15 minutes. Comes out with the casing fried a little, almost like putting it on the grill. Take it out sooner if you don't like it fried like that.

We used to do it that way in a cast iron pan. Then let it run out of water, add some bacon grease or oil and fry it a bit on both sides. Now just use the air fryer.

I like the Hunter and Cajun from there.
Andouille also decent. Not as spicy as the 2 you mentioned, but a little spice on the backside.

If you're making a hash with some potatoes, any of those 3 will bring some spice to it.

If you're not searing sausage on both sides at the end once the water evaporates you're wasting it IMHO and missing out on all the true taste.. I won't hardly eat it without a good little crust on the outsides anymore.

Lifelong langdon locker fan, hickory hut was good, k&e meats from cando is great as well..

Rings of seared deer sausage in the cockpot with a jar of Chilli sauce and cup of grape jelly is always an empty cockpot at the end of any of my get-togethers 😎

(Don't get me started on a "buck in a blanket". 6"er wrapped in buttered toast and syrup)
