Slow smoked with no nitrites/nitrates added (Except those naturally occurring in sea salt and cultured celery powder). No MSG added. No artificial preservatives (See back panel for ingredients used to preserve quality). Fresh crafted, smoked meats. Real ingredients taste better. I believe smoked meats should be made with real ingredients. Why? When you season and marinate fresh meats with whole, roasted, or diced ingredients from farms - not just dried spices - you get a fresher homemade flavor. It's not the easiest way to do things, or the quickest, but I think you'll agree you can taste the difference. - Duke. This Batch Was Freshly Crafted with: Serrano Peppers: Diced Serranos are the perfect peppers for our Hot & Spicy Smoked Shorty Sausages because their natural oils add a flavorful heat that reminds us of freshly-made salsa - a flavor you can't get with just dried pepper powder. Fresh, Never-Frozen Pork: We start with fresh, never frozen pork that has never been given added hormones (Federal regulations prohibit the use of hormones in pork). Cherry Wood Smoke Blend: Slow-smoked with a cherry and hickory wood blend that pairs perfectly with the peppery sausage kick. Small Batch Care: Batch case qty. Hand-hung and slow-dried for days in small limited-size batches. No liquid smoke. Last I heard, smoke wasn’t a liquid.
