A large smoked pork sausage from the Haut-Doubs in Franche-Comté, made of coarsely chopped pork in a natural casing, recognisable by the small wooden peg (the cheville) closing one end. It is slowly cold-smoked over resinous conifer sawdust in a traditional tuyé chimney, giving a firm, meaty sausage with a deep smoky savour. It carries a protected IGP designation.
