I just finished making 60 lbs of cheese and cheese/jalapeno smokies and 20 pounds of garlic sausage and I am very happy.
I get all of my supplies including the premixed spices from the link below. They will ship and the quality is top rate.

Linda the owner has been giving sausage making classes for years and I have never regreted taking it.
