Are you Ready for some Football?

Fritz’s Blog – August 29, 2019

The taste of Fall is in the air…at least it is around the Usinger house because we’ve got a grill of brats going. Hey, it’s football season and nothing goes with a game like Usinger brats hot off the grill. It’s a good time to try some Oktoberfest brats too, get’em while you can. This is also the time to stock up because our Fall Shipping Special featuring $9.99 flat rate shipping to most of the U.S. starts September 6^th until October 7^th. Check our website for more details. You can order anything from the Usinger Deli that’s 6 pounds or more and ship for $9.99 to most of the U.S. Shipping maps are available at usinger.com so you can check your area before you order.

Enjoy the games!

It’s Almost Time for the Fair!

Fritz’s Blog – July 9, 2019

The Wisconsin State Fair will be starting in a couple of weeks at State Fair Park in Milwaukee. It’s always one of the highlights of summer for Wisconsinites including myself. There’s something for everyone to see and do, from farm animals to new products, and carnival rides to great food! Speaking of food, you’ll find many of the best eats in the air conditioned Wisconsin Products Pavilion. We’ve been a part of the Wisconsin Products Pavilion for many years and I can honestly say I don’t think you’ll find a better place to eat at the Fair than here. Whether you like brats or baked potatoes they’ve got it all…and why not have both! The menu at Usinger’s booth this year includes bratwurst w/kraut, smoked brat w/kraut, Italian sausage w/pepper & onions, Beef Frank, and our classic Reuben sandwich. Of course all of our sausages are served on tasty Miller Bakery Pretzel buns.

Plan your trip now and we’ll see you at the Fair!

Summer is Here!

Fritz’s Blog – June 19, 2019

The Summer season, however short it may be is upon us. That means grilling is in full swing so let’s review the basics.

Make sure to clean the grill, even if you cleaned it before you put it away, it’s always a good idea to hit it again before use.

If it’s gas check the propane connections and make sure you’ve got plenty of propane. If it’s charcoal, make sure all the residue you can remove is gone and you’ve got fresh charcoal. Charcoal does absorb moisture so if it’s been setting in a bag in the garage it may not burn with the energy you’d expect.

Now that your grill is ready, make sure you’ve got goods to put on it. Of course, that means a fine selection of Usinger brats and franks. You may want to check out our pork shops as well. They’re very tasty and you can pick’em up at our retail store on Old World 3^rd Street.

Enjoy you’re summer, you never know how long it will last.
