Sausage Descriptions


Colosimoís sausage has been made continuously in Utah since 1923. Grandpa Ralph brought his recipe for Calabrese sausage from the old country (Italy) and weíve been expanding on it ever since. All of our pork sausages are made from only the finest cuts of pork. We use the pork shoulder commonly referred to as the Boston Butts. We make sausage on purpose and we never use off cuts or trim product. Our sausages are made daily in our inspected facilities in Sandy, Utah.

Varieties


Mild Italian
   This is our foundation sausage. The one grandpa brought with him from Calabria. It is a mix of cayenne, salt and the sweet flavor of fennel.

Hot Italian
   The hot is the same sweet fennel with the heat of cayenne and crushed chili peppers.

New York
   New York style is commonly referred to as sweet. It comes from the Sicilian region where fennel is king. Cayenne, crushed chili, and extra fennel.

Black Pepper
   Comes from Northern Italy where fennel is considered a poor mans food. So this is simply salt, pepper, and rich red wine.

Tuscan
   The Tuscans also didnít care for fennel but appreciate garlic. So this is salt, pepper rich red wine and garlic.

Whiskey Fennel
   Takes the sweetness of fennel and the smoothness of Jack Danielís and combines them to make a smooth sweet sausage.

Bratwurst
   Is a traditional German style sausage with nutmeg and coriander. This is a mild but flavorful sausage

Garlic Bratwurst
   This is the Italian in us figuring a little garlic canít hurt

Onion and Garlic
   Why boil them in onion and garlic? Weíll save you a step and add to the sausage

Hot Bratwurst
   A regular bratwurst is too mild we will add a little cayenne to spice things up.

Beer Brats
   Again we are a little lazy so instead of boiling them in beer we add it to the sausage

Landjager
   Comes from a different region of Germany where caraway seed is added to the nutmeg and coriander. It is commonly a cooked or dried sausage, but we prefer it fresh.

Polish
   A traditional polish recipe that has garlic, and marjoram that gives the sausage a full bodied flavor

Hot Polish
   The barbecue place down the street loves them so we added cayenne to make a spicy polish.

Kielbasa
   This is a finer ground sausage with garlic, mustard and marjoram.

Chicago Polish
   Very similar to our regular polish, but has a mire, garlic, paprika, and a hint of mustard

Chorizo

Linguisa
   A Portuguese style sausage that is very rich with garlic, pepper and a tartness that will tickle your taste buds.

Santa Fe
   This is seasoned with onion and a hint of cumin and cayenne to give it some heart.

Cajun
   Fresh andouille that has the traditional three peppers that give heart and the onion and garlic that give it a wine finishing taste. Great for Jambalaya.

American

Italian Link-etz
