Be great without the bone in there
Pretty tasty sausages, but please stop grinding up bone. Bone in every single link!

Great taste, terrible packaging
They taste great but... the new packaging is terrible. Once you open them you are stuck with 5 servings after eating one. I don't like having to buy zip lock bags just to store the leftovers. I miss being able to reseal them.

Thanks for sharing your feedback. After receiving a large amount of feedback on how our packaging was too difficult to open, we decided to make a change. I will share your comments on the ability to reseal with our packaging team!

Shocking crunch?
I loved the Jalapeño cheddar sausage until I started finding bone chips in them . You need to do a quality check

Poor quality control and full of bone bits
I bought these while on vacation, while I don’t care for processed foods, generally this brand is ok. This package was not. In one sausage I had 3 sizeable pieces of bone or cartilage chunks. Every one we tried had chunks, so we threw them out. Very disappointed.

Disappointed!!!
This sausage is great accept for one more thing! Need to be spicier and more cheese. I have purchased many packages seems like every other one has had no cheese or Jalapeños. Frankly I am tired of buying these Sausages if you can’t make your product bettet

Decent but not the best, lack of jalapeño kick
The taste was lack of jalapeño kick. The flavor was pretty mild. The quality of the pork was definitely noticeable. I will not recommend this if you want a good jalapeño kick.

Bring back the Real jalapeño cheddar links
I've been eating these since the 90s. I have to say they were a whole lot better then. More spicy. It seems like over the past few years there's hardly any spiciness left in them. There starting to taste like your Cheddar sausage links.

Replaced Normal Hotdogs
I love this brand and this is the only kind that I buy. It doesn’t have a Spicy Hot taste. Just how I like it.

Package problems
I love these smoked sausage links. I usually buy at least three packages with every grocery order. BUT!!!! The packaging leaves a lot to be desired. It is nearly impossible for an ordinary person to open these packages so they can be resealed. If you could include some tabs that one could get hold of to help separate the seal, it would be most appreciated. As it is now, I just cut them open and then put the remaining portions in a Ziplock bag for later. I’m sure I’m not the first to point this out. MY review would be five stars if this problem were addressed.

My favorite hotdog
Reminds of the gas station jalapeño cheddar dogs at circle K or QT! While that may turn off some people these are my favorite. Delicious hot dog flavor with a bit of cheese and heat.

Nice Hot Dogs
Please don’t get these confused, these are hot dogs. They are delicious but definitely wouldn’t call them anything but hot dogs. I like to eat them as such with toasted buttered bread and ketchup and spicy brown mustard.

Excellent
Haven’t tried the Cajun ones but all the others are amazing done on a roller doll machine. Husband bought one last year and we have these sausages during Chiefs games.
