Specialty Sausage Sampler: Congratulations Toby!
Greetings carnivores! This week we’re offering a treat right up your alley: a 9lb specialty sausage sampler!
Congratulations Toby!
Toby Corn’s comment has been picked at random, so a sampler packed with sausagey goodness is heading his way! Toby said he was most interested in trying the pheasant sausage, calling it “a true winter gift”. Of course, once he’s chomped his way through the pheasant, there’s still wild boar sausage, rabbit sausage, etc etc etc…this sampler is a gift that keeps on giving.
Almost as exciting (if not more) is that Toby is also now welcome to enter our upcoming Ridiculously Delicious Challenge!










Which one? Decisions decision. It would be a toss up between the lamb and the venison with blueberries. Blueberries would probably win.
November 28th, 2010 at 10:38 pmI would sell my soul for sausages!
I am torn between the Venison Sausage with Merlot & Blueberries and the Wild Boar Sausage with Cranberries & Shiraz.
November 29th, 2010 at 1:23 amBeing a resident of Oklahoma, I should pick Buffalo Sausage with Chipotle Chilies, but the Lamb Merguez has me very curious!
November 29th, 2010 at 5:53 amThey all sound amazing, but I know my husband would love the Buffalo with Chipotle. The Elk would be my choice!
November 29th, 2010 at 6:22 amHow to choose just one? If I had to choose, I’d probably pick the pheasant with cognac. We’re both huge cognac fans, and I haven’t had pheasant in years – not since our cat brought one home and left it by the back door.
True story, that. (It was a LONG time ago!)
November 29th, 2010 at 6:37 amThey all sound amazing. I think the elk with pear and port is intriguing me the most this morning.
November 29th, 2010 at 8:04 amOh my GOSH, I want those sausages. Perhaps it is my recent marathon viewing of Man v. Food Carnivore Chronicles…but I want them NOW!
I saw venison and my mouth started to water. I think I would die to try the Venison with Blueberries…but both of the Wild Boar sausages sound delicious…and foi gras? I mean. Really.
November 29th, 2010 at 10:08 amDefinitely the buffalot sausage, but they all sound divine.
November 29th, 2010 at 10:13 amI’m always tempted to buy this sampler pack, and if I don’t win I’m guessing I will purchase it someday soon. I really want to try those Duck Sausages with Foie Gras & Sauterne Wine.
November 29th, 2010 at 10:34 amreally? I am drooling already.
November 29th, 2010 at 11:59 amOh My…what a tough decision. I’m a huge Wild Boar fan so the one with the boar, garlic and marsala would probably be my first choice…Elk with pear and port my second. What a great giveaway!
November 29th, 2010 at 1:13 pmOh WOW, they all sound so good! I would be all over the Duck Sausage with Foie Gras & Sauterne Wine!
November 29th, 2010 at 2:25 pmThe buffalo sausage with chipotle sounds like it would be amazing to try – I love chipotle flavors!
November 29th, 2010 at 3:48 pmMmmmm smoked duck with apple brandy sounds incredible. Actually they all sound incredible. Great giveaway!
November 29th, 2010 at 4:25 pmWow! I’m definitely all about trying the wild boar!
November 29th, 2010 at 7:15 pmI’d be most interested to try the Duck with orange liquor, though the Wild Boar with roasted garlic & Marsala would likely be my favorite.
November 30th, 2010 at 4:07 amThe smoked duck sausage with apple brandy sounds intriguing–I’ve never seen, let alone eaten, duck sausage before!
I’d also be interested in seeing how strong the pear flavor would be in the elk sausage.
November 30th, 2010 at 8:59 amwild boar with garlic and marsala for me………
November 30th, 2010 at 9:43 amone rabbit with white wine coming right up!
November 30th, 2010 at 9:45 amOhh! Pick me! I love sausages!
November 30th, 2010 at 1:13 pmDuck Sausages with Foie Gras & Sauterne Wine FTW!!!
Wow! I don’t know if I can choose!! But the Venison with Blueberries sounds divine.
November 30th, 2010 at 1:41 pmI love all the sausages, but if I had to narrow it down, I would say I’m most excited about is the Wild Boar with Roasted Garlic & Marsala.
November 30th, 2010 at 1:42 pmWow…I don’t know where to begin with all of those sausages but if I had to choose one, I would go with the En Croute Garlic Sausage. LOVE my garlic and would be something I might have to enjoy alone
November 30th, 2010 at 1:46 pmI’d love the Elk with Pear & Port Wine ….or the Wild Boar Sausage with Cranberries & Shiraz ….gosh everything is so exotic and mouth-watering!
November 30th, 2010 at 7:31 pmThough it’s a really tough call – I think the Buffalo Sausage with Chipotle Chiles is the one I am most interested to try. I’m a sucker for chipotles! That venison blueberry one is definitely a close second though!!
November 30th, 2010 at 8:17 pmOh yum… these all sound delicious! For me, it’d be between the Lamb Merguez and the Venison with Red Wine & Demi Glace. Picking only one, I’d be most excited for the Lamb!
November 30th, 2010 at 8:45 pmHoly sausages. Wild Boar with roasted garlic and marsala, please! Sounds tasty.
November 30th, 2010 at 10:13 pmSausage is great. This is a fact.
December 1st, 2010 at 7:48 amAfter spending a year living in the Rocky Mountains, I’ll have to go with the Buffalo Sausage with Chipotle. I haven’t had access to quality buffalo in nearly 5 years and I’m seriously craving it! However, the Lamb Merquez is also very intriguing!
December 1st, 2010 at 8:07 amI just bought some duck sausage at the farmers’ market and it was delicious. So I would love to try your special varieties of duck sausages. I also would love to taste the elk as I never had it before.
December 1st, 2010 at 8:38 amPick me, please pick me!
I would love to throw a 12 course tasting menu and then write it up on my blog.
This list would blow my fellow NYC foodbloggers minds.

I would love to win this! And, my kids would too….they love them some sausage. The smoked duck sounds the best to me…..(or the wild boar).
December 1st, 2010 at 10:14 amOohh…smoked duck with apple brandy!
December 1st, 2010 at 12:17 pmMy husband (www.athoughtforfood.net) doesn’t eat meat, and while everything he makes for for me is delicious, I sometimes feel there is something lacking.
December 1st, 2010 at 1:11 pmI am especially excited by the Duck with Foie Gras & Sauterne Wine. There is nothing that I love more than some fine Foie Gras
Definitely the Elk with pear and port wine. They all sound good, though, and inspire me to try some new combinations in my own sausage-making experiments.
December 1st, 2010 at 5:43 pmWow, all of them sound delicious! I really want to try all of them. If I have to just pick one, the Duck Sausage with Foie Gras & Sauterne Wine will be the winner!
December 2nd, 2010 at 1:42 amooh, sausage. love! so many things to make with it: fritata, sandwiches, mac & cheese, etc, etc. fingers crossed
December 2nd, 2010 at 11:23 amWOW! What i could do with these! I love to try new things! Crossing fingers..
December 2nd, 2010 at 11:25 amThe smoked ducked sausage with apple brandy sound perfect for Christmas!
December 2nd, 2010 at 11:26 amI’d love to try your sausages…we love to cook with sausage in the cooler months, and your flavors look AWESOME!
December 2nd, 2010 at 11:26 amThey all sound great, i am curious about the buffalo
December 2nd, 2010 at 11:27 amI am super eager about all of the varieties, I just had a mini freak out when i saw this. I LOVE MEAT!
December 2nd, 2010 at 11:34 amI have a very sensitive palette and appreciate quality foods more than most people. only problem is I’m a college student and can not afford those foods. Looking foward to trying these.
I’m hungry now.
I would have to go with the Duck Sausage with Orange, or the Lamb Merguez…it’s quite the tough call, really.
December 2nd, 2010 at 11:38 amthe great thing about game is im the only one in my house that will eat it. ALL FOR ME!
December 2nd, 2010 at 11:44 amWow!!! What a sampler…I would love to try the lamb sausage. MMMM
December 2nd, 2010 at 11:45 amWould love to try the Buffalo Sausage with Chipotle Chilies, given my affinity for bison burgers & love of anything spicy! Others sounds more adventurous, though, and delicious!
December 2nd, 2010 at 12:03 pmhmmm…. wild Boar with cranberreis and shiraz sounds wonderful. thinking a stuffed bread recipe maybe even with a glaze….
December 2nd, 2010 at 12:06 pmThat sounds absolutely awesome!!…… These would go great on the grill down here in Baton Rouge for an LSU Tiger Tailgate!!!
Thanks for the opportunity, and I’ll repost this link on FB.

December 2nd, 2010 at 12:09 pmIf it’s sausage I’m IN.
December 2nd, 2010 at 12:15 pmI’m thinking venison and then I could do something with the ghost peppers I bought from you guys. Mmmm
December 2nd, 2010 at 12:29 pmSausages Yum! Sounds like my newest Thanksgiving Day idea
December 2nd, 2010 at 1:12 pmI’m doing this for my husband… the meat eater
I’d say the duck sausage… sounds so decadent. I’d even give it a try.
December 2nd, 2010 at 1:17 pmNo problem deciding… Duck Sausage with Foie Gras & Sauterne Wine sounds perfect.
December 2nd, 2010 at 1:52 pmOk, I can’t help myself…again. I want a plate with all of these babies perfectly lined up. But if I MUST discriminate,I will HAVE to pick 2. Garson, I’ll have some of the Duck with Foie AND a separate order of the Wild Boar with Cranberries, si vous ples e merci!
December 2nd, 2010 at 3:34 pmSausage, sausage…I want sausage! I love a good venison sausage, but I would love to try the Wild Boar Sausage with Cranberries & Shiraz. Yummy!
December 2nd, 2010 at 3:48 pmThey all caught my eye (or appetite), but being from a deer hunting family, the venison with Merlot and blueberries is the one I’d try first… serve with homemade buttermilk pancakes at a family brunch… yummmmmm.
December 2nd, 2010 at 6:10 pmOhhhh duck sausage….and elk, and venison. I can’t decide. It all sounds so wonderful! PICK ME! I will be eternally gratefull *wink*
December 2nd, 2010 at 7:23 pmIf I had to choose just one, I’d go with the Buffalo Sausage with Chipotle Chilies. I love a bit of spice to my meat. Probably the Elk with pear and port wine would be my second choice.
(My first choice would be “kanga bangas”, if you can get your hands on kangaroo sausages. That shouldn’t surprise anyone at Marx Foods
December 2nd, 2010 at 7:35 pmEach one of those sirens whispers sweet nothings promising a nosh-a-licious encounter.
But today, the Lamb Merguez sings loudest. Richly, superbly, exotic. Hinting at desert climates. Just enough to chase the chill from my Northwest morning. Fluffy couscous, tzatiki sauce to cool the fire of chilis and you really don’t need anything else.
December 3rd, 2010 at 12:20 pmWild Boar…
December 3rd, 2010 at 1:13 pmThere’s a true winter gift – Pheasant sausage!
December 3rd, 2010 at 1:55 pmWOW! I just want to start and say how impressed and hungry I am after scouring your website! Cannot wait to order.
If I could try any of the sausage from the sampler, the one that would get me most excited would be the pheasant with cognac. This was just a random choice because I would fall out of my seat if I could try any of them! All of the combinations sound delicious. I love cognac, I never had pheasant but eat and enjoy any and everything meat. These sampler combos make all right in the world
December 4th, 2010 at 6:48 amI would so love to win!!! I really really really want to try them all, and had a really tough time picking a “most wanted” variety between the buffalo w/ chipotle and the elk w/ pear & port, but ultimately, I love elk the most, so that’s my #1 pick! Hope you choose me so I can try them all
December 4th, 2010 at 9:34 amWow, sausage heaven!!! Duck and buffalo sausage sound so good!
December 5th, 2010 at 2:48 pmThe pheasant with cognac sounds so intriguing. The buffalo with chipotle sounds divine. Although the Wild Boar Sausage with Cranberries and Shiraz sounds tempting; which do I pick? I would love to win the sampler pack — for some reason eating sausage has made me feel stronger physically, which helps.
December 6th, 2010 at 12:09 amDefinitely excited about the duck sausage with apple brandy! It’s so different than the german style sausage that I’m used to eating and cooking with. Would have to design an entire menu just to compliment all that flavor!
