should be fine. the don't refreeze thing is bunk. i've done it dozens of times. when isabelle came through here and we were without power for days, all my meat went into a cooler with plenty of ice and i refroze it all when the power came back. not a problem with any of it.

You can make the sausage then freeze or make and cook the sausage then freeze. Cooking is the operative kill step and when you do it is immaterial. If you plan to freeze after cooking then cool quickly.
