Hot link (sausage)[edit]

  • ... that in Texas, the hot link sausage (example pictured) is usually prepared using beef, while in Chicago, pork is typically used?

Created by 156ableitem (talk). Expanded by Northamerica1000 (talk). Nominated by Northamerica1000 (talk) at 07:37, 18 September 2016 (UTC).

  • New enough (September 18 expansion), long enough (1,956 characters), neutral, very well cited throughout, free from copyvio concerns and no close para detected. Hook is short enough (109 characters), interesting, and cited to ref 14 (and mentioned in ref 14). QPQ done, image is CC-BY-2.0. I do have a question about the image though, perhaps you can help Northamerica1000: is the depicted item a hot link? The Flickr description page says "Jim 'N Nick's BBQ - Smoked Hot Link or this...they ran out" implying that perhaps this isn't a hot link? I'm not familiar with this item so I can't be sure either way. Any thoughts? Otherwise, good to go! Best, BobAmnertiopsisChatMe! 15:43, 19 September 2016 (UTC)
  • @Bobamnertiopsis: Good catch. I have removed the image from this nomination (diff) and from the article. The image source states "Jim 'N Nick's BBQ - Smoked Hot Link or this...they ran out."...the "or this" part implies that it's a different sausage. North America1000 02:37, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
  • I tried Google Image searching hot links and it turns out that (to my eyes) all sausages just kind of look the same so I don't know what to make of it. Anyway, everything's good to go! Great work. BobAmnertiopsisChatMe! 03:12, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
