Summer
Program Thank you to those who contributed to the success of our earlier classes. We have expanded our program based on the feedback you made. The heart of Traditions sausage is our Sunday Dinner Program. We are now offering large group demonstration/tasting classes as an introduction class. For those interested in the full process of sausage making we are offering small group production classes to complement our Sunday Dinner small group program. For the holidays, consider purchasing a gift certificate to either the Traditions Sunday Dinner program or demonstration class. Gift Certificates can be purchased for individuals, couples or groups.
Sunday Dinner Class The Traditions Sunday Dinner Program is a sausage and cured meats hands-on experience. We provide the fresh ingredients: meat, spices and casings. You provide the desire and interest. We work in groups of 4 to 6 people, individuals or couples, to create a family experience. Each class starts with an introduction on the history of sausage making, a few family stories, and a discussion at each step of the process. You will touch, smell and taste your way through the entire process of grinding, mixing spices, stuffing and tying sausages links, etc. Two or three sausage mixes are made at each class. We have 8 mixes ranging from mild to peppery to spicy and are continuing to expand our selections. At the conclusion of the class, we will provide a sit-down dinner featuring sausage dishes using family recipes, bread, seasonal fruits and vegetables and a few glasses of wine, etc. In addition, each person will take home about five pounds of their own homemade sausage and many memories. Class price is $60.00. |
Demonstration Class For those who are not sure what to do with five pounds of sausage provided in the Sunday Dinner Program we are offering Demonstration/Tasting classes. This is a wonderful introduction to sausage and cured meats processing and a food experience complete with handouts, a hands-on sausage preparation demonstration of at least 2 different mixes, a cured meat demonstration, and herb demonstration. The highlight of the class is sampling a few dishes using our sausage mixes made in the class and homemade cured meats. The demonstration, food tasting, bread, wine and a green salad is $30.00 per person.
Sausage Production Classes For those who have taken the demonstration or Sunday Dinner Dinner class and are interested in making a minimum of five pounds of sausage we are offering advance sausage making classes. In the advance class the group cuts, spices and produces their own sausage. Traditions provides the fresh pork, spices, casings, the sausage press and general instructions. No class would be complete without a loaf of French bread, a few glasses of wine and tasting our mixes. Cost of sausage production class is $35.00.

Traditions Philosophy What Traditions provides is a family experience not only in making sausage but our philosophy: "Even in an urban environment, you can have fruit and citrus trees, herb gardens, fresh vegetables, and quality homemade meats." Enjoy eating closer to the production end of the food chain, learn how to become more of a producer rather than a consumer, and embrace cooking as a habit rather than a ritual.
