Summertime grilling is here! Shop a variety of our housemade sausages, all beef hot dogs, and other grilling links specially crafted for the ultimate bite, snap, and flavor.

These Buffalo Chicken Sausages from Dom | How To Grill are done right- slow smoked, clean heat, and big flavor. Checkout his cooking recommendations below:

• Start with raw sausages, cold and dry.
• Smoke low at 160°F for 3 hours with apple or pecan wood, rotating every hour.
• Crank it up to 300°F for 30 minutes until they hit 160°F internal.
• Not serving all of them? Drop the rest straight into an ice bath for 5–7 minutes. That stops carryover cooking and locks in the snap.

When you’re ready to serve, reheat low and slow or pan-sear to bring them back to life.

Alpage Gruyere Cracking next Thursday, June 18th at 5:30pm!

Join us for our annual Gruyère d’Alpage Cracking! This exciting cheese is a summertime favorite due to its seasonal terroir. Alpage Gruyere is made through the act of “transhumance”, the act of moving cows from the lowlands up to the highlands to graze on lush summer grass, wildflowers, and herbs. This traditionally happens between May and October, meaning the milk used to make this cheese was produced last year. We’ll be opening up a wheel of Gruyere from the Brenleires Chalet, one of only 50 chalets in Switzerland that’s able to produce this certified AOP cheese, for free samples and fresh wedges to take home to welcome the first day of summer.

This free demonstration starts at 5:30 pm at our shop and will include samples, refreshments, and other pairings to highlight our unique producers and products. RSVP below so we know how much accoutrement to prepare.
