Gumbo sausage in Chicago?

So I'm going to make gumbo this weekend, and was wondering if anyone had recommendations for where to find sausage for such a thing--spicy, and not too sweet. Once upon a time, Dave Duerson hot links were the perfect thing, and easy to find anywhere, but they don't seem to exist anymore. And the andouille stocked by Treasure Island and Whole Foods just doesn't work well at all--it ends up really tough, so I'm guessing it's just not fatty enough to stand up to long simmering.

I'm thinking Paulina Market; any other suggestions?
