First, let’s get this out of the way: Yes, there really was an Uncle John. In fact, he was our first smokemaster when we got started more than 50 years ago. You know how sometimes the secret ingredient in something special is “love”? Uncle John’s passion and craftsmanship—his pride—is our secret ingredient.

Because we maintain this dedication to craftsmanship and attention to detail today. Which means always making our sausages with high-quality, real ingredients. In small batches. Cooking them slowly. At a low temperature. Using natural hickory wood. It’s not a brag to say we think they’re the best sausages out there. Because we take pride in what we do.
