Welcome to the world of authentic craft sausage making
Others sell
the sizzle
not the
sausage.
Craft sausage making is a skill handed down from generation to generation. Over time, many craft sausage makers were forced to close their doors. The art of making authentic German sausage has almost disappeared.
We are craft sausage makers born in Cincinnati’s historic Porkopolis meat district who value the same time-honored processes and skill handed down from previous generations. We are dedicated to the art of making real food for real people. Food that connects. Food that matters.
But one true original
remains.
We believe in doing what is right not what is easy
We believe in crafting the absolute best sausage in every batch, every day, for every customer. We were born in Cincinnati’s historic Porkopolis meat district, and we continue to thrive there as the last man standing.
We believe in small batch production. This means every batch has all hands-on deck, from blending, stuffing, smoking, and packaging. All details are noticed. Great care is applied. Extreme flavor is retained.
The perfect
craft sausage
to elevate
the art of grilling
The grill is the backyard focal point and place to put our craft sausages to the test. Let us help you perfect the art of grilling, and show your guests that they are appreciated, by sharing Queen City sausages at your next cookout.
We fill up your senses
Aroma
There is nothing more primal and sensory engaging as fresh sausages in the hickory smoke house. Hickory wood imparts extreme flavor and vibrant color.
Beauty
These premium sausages glisten on the grill. The fire and heat bring out the very best color and char to delight all your senses, including the naked eye.
Taste
There is a temptation to either eat uncontrollably fast because the sausages are so incredibly good, or slowing down to savor every delicious bite.
