Sahlen’s Skinless Smokehouse Cocktail Wieners now available at Tops Friendly Markets and Wegmans locations in WNY!
The public demand for a smaller, bite-sized version of Buffalo’s own hot dog had been growing over the past several years. As a result, Sahlen implemented new food manufacturing processes and technologies to meet the consumer demand, resulting in the latest Sahlen product—Cocktail Wieners.
Sahlen‘s VP of Marketing, Kenneth Voelker, explained how this new product, now available for purchase at local Tops and Wegmans locations, came to be. “The proud, loyal people of Western New York spoke, and we here at Sahlen Packing Company listened. It’s been a long time coming but we’re now able to announce the release of Sahlen’s Cocktail Wieners, packed with the same Smokehouse flavor that people across the country have come to know and love. And we couldn’t be more proud to have these Cocktail Wieners be available at two of WNY’s premier grocery retailers in Tops and Wegmans.”
Sahlen’s Cocktail Wieners are made with fresh, never frozen, and gluten-free ingredients. The Cocktail Wieners come fully cooked in 20 oz packages. Consisting of a blend of pork, beef, and Sahlen’s signature blend of Smokehouse seasonings, Sahlen’s Cocktail Wieners are versatile and can be enjoyed on their own, rolled with pastry, simmered in a slow cooker, and more.
Over its 150-year history, Sahlen Packing Co. has ensured the highest quality meat product, cooked and cured to create their signature Smokehouse flavor for retailers, foodservice operators, and families across the country. This heritage of quality and freshness spans the entire Sahlen product line, including Polish and Italian sausages, a variety of deli meats, the flagship Tender Casing Smokehouse Hot Dogs, and Sahlen’s new Skinless Smokehouse Cocktail Wieners, which Wegmans and Tops customers can begin purchasing.
