Ships Nationwide in U.S.
Not eligible for shipping to CanadaSchmidt’s Sausage Haus ships its legendary sausage nationwide on Goldbelly! The Bahama Mama is Schmidt’s trademark creation thanks to the family’s over 125 years in the sausage industry. Made famous on the Travel Channel’s Man v. Food, it’s a fully cooked natural hickory-smoked sausage made from specially selected lean cuts of beef and pork, blended with their secret spice pack formulation. The Bahama Mama Sausage Kit includes also Schmidt’s amazingly delicious bratwurst, which is a fresh, pure pork sausage seasoned with just salt, pepper, and a little bit of sugar. Both sausages are a natural casing Old World product.
J. Fred Schmidt opened his eponymous meat packing house in 1886 in the heart of Columbus’s German Village, quickly becoming Central Ohio’s most well-known name in the meat industry. In 1967, J. Fred’s grandson, George F. Schmidt, opened the company’s first restaurant just around the corner from the meat packing plant. Using sausage recipes from the packing days and dessert recipes from the German ladies hired to run the kitchen, Schmidt’s Sausage Haus became an instant success and today, four generations later, it’s a Columbus landmark known for its legendary Bahama Mama sausages and giant cream puffs. Schmidt’s has been featured on the Travel Channel’s Man vs. Food and is on the National Register of Historic Places. The restaurant’s Bahama Mama sausage was voted the Official Food of Columbus, Ohio!
