Summer sausage question

Chuckwagon, Hi Chuckwagon;
I have spent hours online looks for a "old timer Summer Sausage Recipe" My uncle had the best summer sausage recipe I ever ate but took it to his grave with him. I don't have a clue what goes into this sausage that gives it that unusual taste and zip it had. I've tried several times to make it, and what I make is good, but it isn't what I'm looking for. That sausage you bake in the oven, I don't call summer sausage, that is a geno salami. The summer sausage I am used to is mixed up, stuff in hog casings, and smoked in a smoke house for a couple days or longer.
Can you give me and ideas? Would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a bunch.
