Campfire Conversation: The conversation began with facts about bratwurst and Wisconsin’s status as a

leader in production – and consumption – of them not only nationwide, but worldwide. Eric, Josh, and

Michelle discussed some of the larger well-known manufacturers of brats and other sausages including

Johnsonville, which ships all over the world. The conversation then delves into smaller crafters of brats

and sausages in shops and markets all over the state, including places like Trig’s in Eagle River, Leroy

Meats in Horicon, Miesfeld’s in Sheboygan, JL Richards in Oregon, Meatski’s outside of Pound, Lake

Geneva Country Meats outside Lake Geneva, Bessey’s in Rhinelander, Fifield Smokehouse in Fifield,

Baraboo’s Meat Market, Louie’s in Cumberland, Maplewood just outside Green Bay, and plenty more

including rundowns of locations in Milwaukee. The debates about buying fresh vs. precooked, how to

cook your brat, dress your brat… all those that can start alliances or adversaries among Wisconsinites –

we cover it all.
