Our Story It all began in 1988 when Dan started selling summer sausages door to door out of his '74 Dodge Dart. He always began with, "Hi, I'm Dan the Sausageman". People would laugh, he would sell, and Dan the Sausageman was born. It's been over 35 years since he started his route and a lot has changed since then, but our commitment to creating a quality product, and offering great customer assistance has never faltered. --- COMMUNITY FOCUS: DO GOOD, FEEL GREAT!

"I found Dan the Sausageman online while looking for a gift box to send to family members. I am so glad that I found them! My family said that it was the most delicious and highest quality assortment that they had ever had. I highly recommend them." -Jennifer T. Salami or Summer Sausage? My east coast friends tell me, "We don’t eat summer sausage here, that’s called salami!" Salami and Summer Sausage are very closely related, but the main difference is salami has an additional percentage of moisture removed during the curing process. This means that while salami is great, summer sausage is more tender when sliced to eat, and more versatile for cooking! Summer Sausage is great for: Pizza Pasta Salad Risotto Silders Pasta Dishes Savory Salad Soup And More! What is Summer Sausage? Dan the Sausageman sausages are 100% beef, naturally smoked, gluten free, contain no msg, and no added nitrates. But what is summer sausage exactly? Before modern refrigeration, meat was cured during the winter months so that it could be consumed during the warmer summer months without spoiling, hence the name "Summer Sausage". Just like the old days our summer sausage is shelf stable, only requiring refrigeration after opening. 100% Beef Naturally Smoked Gluten Free No MSG or Added Nitrates Shelf Stable Family member Rose helping a customer.
