Happy Friday friends!
I have so much to say about all the different sausages that we carry here at The Herbivorous Butcher. We basically have a sausage for every occasion whether it's Thanksgiving, 4th of July, Nonna's birthday, and even that Korean ramen that you're making for your best friend this weekend! This is our spring/summer lineup!
Here's a breakdown of all the brats we carry in-store and online and what the heck you can do with them other than putting them in a bun!

- Slice 'em or dice 'em up and throw in a JUST egg or tofu scramble

- Surprisingly delicious when added to a packet ramen like Maggi noodles
- Slice them and cook them with some broccoli and cheese for a tasty baked potato topping
