Sour tasting
Just got this two days ago. It was very sour and the expiration date isn’t until the end of the month. This may be a bad batch.

Shrinkflation gave me only 21 sausages weighing 9.2 ounces after draining
Beware that the weight must include liquid, and that gives Hillshire Farms plenty of room for shrinkflation at your expense. I have bought and enjoyed these for years and never had a pack with less than 26 sasuages--until November 2025. The most recent pack weighted 9.2 ounces after draining off the liquid and only included 21 sausages, which is not even enough to fill 24 mini crescents (from 1 tube of crescent dough) for the popular finger food. Prior to that, another package this month only had 25 sausages. I am extremely disappointed in Hillshire Farm and need to change up my holiday offerings because of this unreliability.

Perfect Appetizer
This is a great product. The saltiness is spot on. I love that you can use them in a variety of appetizer recipes or just pop them into the microwave or on the stove top for a quick snack.

Unappetizing look
Opened up a package of Beef Little Smokies and all of the links has something brown sticking out of the end, or 4 brown spots in a pattern like some kind of manufacturing process . Couldn't see anything on the inside. Very unappetizing, threw the entire package away.

New product change is not appealing. At all!
The new beef little smokies are more like Vienna sausages. Slimy and gross. The appearance is off, texture is off and the flavor is off.

Smokies
What happened to your Smokies? I used to put them in my red beans, but not anymore. They are too soft And I dont want them for breakfast. I have no use for them anymore. I hope you don't change your Polsa Kielbasa recipe. If you do, then I will no longer buy your products.

2 years ago they had a GREAT Smokey flavor
2 years ago I could have given a definite 5 star rating. The beef Smokey sausage was excellent and we purchased them EVERY WEEK (52 weeks) YEARLY for at least 10 years. We noticed, in 2024, a flavor change. Not sure whether there were ingredient changes, but THE TASTE WAS near TERRIBLE. My entire family noticed. We thought maybe just a bad batch from Kroger's. But more purchases, no matter the different stores, there was that bitter taste & no longer the authentic beefy taste of legitimately smoked meat. Also the lighter appearance of the BEEF Smokies is different than before, but looks as if dark entry point shots of possibly liquid smoke flavoring is now added. Overall a great disappointment now for my grandkids most of all... No mini kolaches, BBQ Smokies or Kiddie spaghetti.

Not my favorite
Much prefer the “Lit’l Weiners” flavor which is now evidently discontinued…The beef smokies have too much of an overcooked taste and cause heartburn.

Great on their own
I love to grill these little guys & dip them in barbecue sauce. So delicious. I don’t eat a lot of meat but this is definitely one way I up my protein for the day.
