Corn Husk Wrapped Jalapeno Sausage

I  have wanted to try this recipe for quite some time.  I wish I could have fired up the smoker, but time didn't permit it and the weather was not right for smoking.   

So the final taste test.  For me...the taste was off.  I don't know if it was the nutmeg or all spice that gave it the weird taste.  Also, I would saute the jalapenos.  The corn husks did great job of keeping the sausage moist.  I can see some diffrent combinations, ingredients, hitting the smoker soon.  I would think a meatloaf type wrap, or just use cajun seasoning with pork.  Who knows.
