A hot link (also "red link", "Louisiana red hot" or "Louisiana hot link"[1][2]) is a type of sausage used in the cuisine of the Southern United States, and a part of American barbecue, soul food, and Cajun[3][4] and Louisiana Creole cuisines. It is also a part of Texan cuisine[5][6] and the cuisine of Chicago, Illinois. The hot link is usually prepared using pork, beef, or a combination of both. It is sometimes used as an ingredient in other dishes, such as jambalaya and gumbo.[7][8] Hot link sausages are mass-produced by some companies in the United States.[6][9]
