R & R was a great success!  The whole family got to spend two weeks of quality time together.  Now it's time to get back to work, although we will be counting down the months until co-owner Kevin Schenker comes home from serving in Afghanistan.  

It is hard to believe that the NFL Playoffs are here again, which means it is time to break out the grill.  We have some beautiful 1" thick pork chops, rib eye steaks, t-bones, brats and more ready for you.  And, don't forget the 1/3" ground beef patties.  These come 10 per package and are ready to thaw and grill.

  What are our favorite teams for the playoffs?  Sorry...mum's the word!

Although it seems like Co-Owner Kevin Schenker deployed to Afghanistan ages ago, the time has finally arrived for his scheduled R & R.  And, it couldn't fall during a better time.  We'll get to spend Christmas and New Year's with Daddy!  The kids and I are so excited we are counting down the days.  Although his R & R will only last two weeks before he has to return to Afghanistan, we will treasure each day together.

 
But, don't worry...we have plenty of time before Kevin's R & R to get orders out and make your holiday gift giving a little easier.  And yes, there is still time to get a gift sent to an APO/FPO address.  We highly recommend the Beef Snack Gift Bundle, featuring Jerky, Snack Sticks and Summer Sausage.  Don't forget to let us know what you would like the card to say.

Have a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!  We especially thank everyone for their business, kind thoughts and prayers.  

Cherie Schenker & Family

We have been getting a lot of e-mails and telephone calls lately asking if there is still time to order Christmas gifts to be shipped to APOs and FPOs.  The answer is yes!  Shipping perishable items like steaks is always a little risky, especially to some of the remote outposts in Afghanistan, but the cooler weather makes a big difference.  

If you are looking for a less expensive gift, try one of our non-perishable gifts, like our one of our gift boxes filled with jerky and salsa.  We get a lot of compliments on our gift boxes featuring a Summer Sausage, snack sticks, jerky and old fashioned baked beans.  It's amazing how much a taste of home hits the spot!

We recently debuted a new recipe for our All-Beef Summer Sausage at a gourmet food show.  The flavor is like our wildly popular Beef Snack Sticks--a taste full of flavor without a lot of fat.  To make a long story short, the Summer Sausage was a huge hit.  We sold out of the cases we had brought with us within two hours of opening the show.  The 1 lb. logs are great with cheese and crackers, on a triple meat pizza, and more.  You can eat them like a snack or slice & use anywhere you would use pepperoni.  

We are offering the logs a la carte or in a variety of gift bundles.  These are shelf stable and need no refrigeration, so they can be easily and cheaply shipped nearly everywhere.

Why settle for the rest, when you can ejoy Schenker's All-Beef Summer Sausage.  We think it is the BEST!

If you have been looking for nitrite/nitrate-free bacon and have had a hard time finding it, look no further.  Made from our pastured pork, our nitrite/nitrate-free bacon has a light flavor from the hand-rubbed seasonings, salt and brown sugar.  We previewed this at a food show recently and were stunned by the response.  Order yours today, as quantities are limited.
