General Info
Joe Kennedy, who had been working at the store as an apprentice to Mr. Spar, then purchased the shop in 2005. Joe already had been cooking in Buffalo for years including a period of time when he served as the Chef de Cuisine at the Park Lane Restaurant in Buffalo. Joe’s thirst for learning and pure love of food made him the perfect candidate to add his own ideas and recipes to the customers. Joe took the specialty shop, which already included fresh and smoked st yles of German, Hungarian, Spanish and Andouille, and he developed his own sausage recipes that now included Lamb Merguez, English Bangers, Portuguese Linguisa and both hot and sweet Calabrese Italian, along with a variety of fully cooked chicken sausages bursting with flavor. Seasonally you’ll find favorites like fresh Turkey Sausage with Cranberries and Sage, stuffed peppers filled with fresh chorizo and cheddar cheese, and smoke house ribs. Hand cut chops and steaks are a mainstay as well as freshly ground pork and beef. There are even easy to reheat items like pulled pork, homemade chili and beef stroganoff to make life a little easier for you! You never know what tasty treat will be available until you stop by!
