One is a modification of Big Guy's recipe (which is a modified version of John Folse's) and the other is a modification of Bruce Aidells' recipe. Are you happy with the level of heat?
Wikipedia wrote:Andouille in France
In France, particularly Brittany,[3] the traditional ingredients of andouille are primarily pig chitterlings, tripe, onions, wine, and seasoning. It is generally grey in color and has a distinctive odor. Also, a similar sausage is available called andouillette, literally "little andouille."

I think this is the main point of this type of sausage. I've put eight recipes on a spreadsheet and the flavor profile for all showed salt, pepper, thyme, cayenne and garlic plus smoked flavor from cooking (often for long periods). They tend towards lean so as to not contribute grease to the dishes they are added to. Historically put into beef middles but now seen more often in large (40mm) hog casings. I'm cold smoking the ones I made now and they should be ready to taste this weekend; I'll put up my modified recipe then.

The photo looks lean to me. I'm trying to get to something with a similar appearance.
