In the grocery stores, the Boulder sausage Co. Brand is pretty good.
There used to be a place on Colfax near Chambers that had killer sausage, I cannot recall the name and haven't been there in years. I think it closed down.
Sawa market. 32nd and wadsworth. Polish market. Homade kielbasa.

There used to be another meat market at Washington and 72nd Ave. Can't recall the name.

Two places I know of in Aurora: Benders Brat Haus on Buckley at Alameda. Helga's on Exposition, behind wallyworld. Helga's is primarily a German restaurant, but they've got a small delicatessen with meats and cheeses.

Euclid Hall in Denver.....

Their chorizo kick ass. I like the hot italians too.
I'd like to find a good butcher shop also.

Try Mark's meats at Iliff & Chambers.
The sausage place I was thinking of was at 6th. ave. & Chambers, not Colfax. It was Benders, glad to hear that they moved, and didn't close down. I will have to visit them again.

That would be Tymkovich meats. They have a pretty good selection of different sausages there. Tim makes most of them in house.
For German sausage, go to Continental Deli in Cherry Creek or Black Forest Deli in Arvada. Continental Sausage (who owns both of those delis) makes most of the authentic German sausages for Colorado restaurants. Their weisswurst (veal/pork brats) are excellent. You can also find them at Costco.
For Italian sausage, Polidori Sausage. You can get most of their stuff at King Soopers, otherwise you can visit them in North Denver.

Boulder sausage has the best OTC sausage on the market. Their chorizo is top shelf. With that being said i deal with...........................Clydes in N denver. been there for decades and takes care of me. Anyone interested, touch bases with me so i could give them a heads up as they are not a walk in store, purely a processing gig.
Italian Sweet, Hot, bulk, link coil, meatballs,,,,,,,,,,,,, hey what can i say this is it.
He does a chorizo that's a little greasy and is slamming.
They also do a hot cured sausage stick that, well ask jreifsch, brycom, zteknik . They were chowing down on what i had left yesterday.
If you have time and looking for italian, i suggest taking a drive along 38th ave west of 25. there are a lot of old time stores where you can decide who makes the better this or that. That part of town is a deeply entrenched italian / hispanic community that's been there for ever.
Meatman has the inside info where to go for other vendors.
I grew up in GB Wisconsin and lived in Sheboygan, the "brat capitol of the world," for a short while in '88, Milwaukee for a few years until '92 when we came here.
4th on Benders for brats. Worth the drive form anywhere in the metro. 'nuff said.

I thought this was just a restaurant (eat in etc.). I didn't think you could buy the fresh/smoked sausage to take home from them like a butchershop. Can you ?
I'm from that area as well (Relatives in Sheboygan Falls) . Usinger's was one of my favorites, as well as local butchershops in N/W IN like Maruscheck's and Pietek's.
Also want to find good hard crust polish rye bread (w/ caraway seeds). Best I've found is off I-25 and Hamden in the Jewish Deli area.
I got all the sausage you need. [Wink]

Seems like you are on the wrong forum.
You probably want the San Francisco or Key West forums.[Spank]

If it is, they must have washed them first, because it is some damn good tasting hippie........[Coffee]

I haven't personally been to the new location since they moved from 6th & Chambers, but have had their brats very recently. The cook for the day, a Centura Health Chef no less :D, picked them up at Benders so I know they sell through their meat market.

Sawa market. 32nd and wadsworth. Polish market. Homade kielbasa.
I might have to make a special trip out there.[Beer]
I'd like to find a Polish deli in the springs.
Seems like since we escaped New York Polska kielbasi is hard to come by,homade anyways.

If so, then it would be kinda like a "Soylent Green" sausage (those of you that can remember the movie know what I referring to...)

Talked with my guy, owner of Clyde's in North Denver. 303-433-8744
Ask for Mike or Dana, let them know Jim referred you. Clyde's is a Wholesale NOT Resale (OTC) place They have no storefront. They also have 5 lb minimum.
IMHO, IF you're from east of ol' misissip, this is some of the best Italian sausage you can grill, bake, toss in sauce, stuff.
I usually buy the sweet or hot in coil form and cut to size.

clydes is 1 of the best. I'm a 100% north denver Italian
sunflower has decent made in house sausage.

the texture and consistancy of sunflower/sprout's sausage is terrible.

italian sausage yes i agree but the andouille is pretty well done. Just my opinion. I make my own. have not bought brats yet this year.
no mention of either Tony's meats or Marcyzk's?

If you want to overpay for sub-par sausage go to Tony's or Marcyzk's
Other suggestions is Carbones on 38th, or Lonardos in lakewood, on Florida and Wadsworth.
