“Queen City Sausage is a local “craft” sausage maker whose recipes are authentic with only the finest ingredients used including hand mixed spices.” According to Mark Balasa, Queen City’s marketing manager. Since 1965, Elmer Hensler, founder and president, still employs old world sausage craftsmanship and real wood smoke flavor in the company’s sausage production. Queen City Sausage is the Official bratwurst and mettwurst of the Cincinnati Reds.
The Queen City Sausage Festival will offer over 27 delicious ways Queen City sausages can be enjoyed in most any recipe. Each festival food vendor will offer their very own specialty dishes using Queen City sausages including Super Brats, Munich Hot Metts, Bierwurst, Smoked Beef, Swiss and Cheddar Mett Pizza, Cincinnati-Style Big Dog (Loaded), Mett and Brat Coneys, Gyro Metts on Pita Bread and much more. Queen City Sausage Co. produces brats, metts, Italian, Andouille, Chorizo and more. Other festival fare includes roasted corn, potato pancakes, pizza and strudel. A special retail Queen City Sausage Shop will be on site offering the most popular sausages produced by the company. The Shop will also feature a unique, new craft sausage, called the Beef and Swiss Mettwurst. Newport’s Riverfront Levee is the perfect setting for this outdoor celebration!
Local radio personality Jerry Thomas will MC the daily Sausage Eating Contests.
