Johnson’s Sausage Shoppe

Took much longer than expected to get my venison sausage back. Phantom $60 extra after paying for the service in full? Overall won't return!

Stopped by here on a trip up north to pick up some brats as they had coupons in the Bucky Book. We ended up getting a large variety of gyro, smoked cajun, chicken, cranberry, poblano, and garlic and herb brats. So far we have only tried the gyro brats, but they were definitely well received. They have a very different flavor than your standard brat, and our friends commented that they had never heard of a gyro brat. They were made of lamb and had a little bit of a subdued flavor compared to a standard gyro, but still very tasty. The brat itself was also a little more dense than a normal brat. Based off of how good the first variety was, I can't wait to try more!

Their sausage is excellent, but their customer service is so bad it is not worth it. They claim they are too busy to get clarity on an order if it is not clear, so now I am just stuck with what they decided to give me instead of what I wanted.

I just picked my processed beef from there, and so far everything is good in that department; However, do NOT pay with a debit card there!!!! They attached a $4.85 "service charge" to my bill, without a forewarning!! The irony is that I had the cash ($121.50) for the processing charge, but I always try to use my debit card. When I called and complained, the only excuse they could gave me is that is what their bank charges them....Won't be going back there....

My husband is a hunter. We eat meat. We've had Johnson's process venison, pork, and beef for us. The pork and beef were custom-processed for us (we know a guy who gets the meat for us from around the area). Everything has always been just as ordered, and the various employees I've dealt with on the phone (ordering up the meat) and in person (paying and loading into the vehicle) have been very polite (and occasionally chatty, which my stay-at-home self appreciates). The meat is vacuum sealed in plastic (a different place we patronized a while ago used butcher paper, which made for a few bloody messes while thawing in the fridge). The place used to be very industrial with a tiny little storefront that had some deli coolers with meat and cheese, but they've upgraded in a huge way. Now it's basically a grocery store with a meat locker attached. It's nice, and the much larger parking lot is appreciated, too. Having your meat custom-processed isn't cheap, but for the quality and convenience it can't be beat.

Bought half a beef and half a pig....every piece of meat we've eaten so far has been excellent!!!from pardeeville wi,Not san francisco!

I just kindly called this place and asked if their meat was locally sourced. The woman that answered the phone impulsively lashed out at me and went on an endless tirade and told me off. She was full of rage and yelling so fast and so loud that I couldn't make out everything she was saying but it was vicious and insulting. There was absolutely nothing in my question that should have triggered such and insane tirade. She literally scared the heck out of me. I wasn't expecting that and she totally caught me off guard. Beware. She is literally crazy.

Chris is a hospitality champion! I felt so welcome! It was well worth the trip from Madison. Such a great selection and the quality was phenomenal. I will definitely be back!!

This local sausage shoppe is a must stop. It had an incredible selection to choose from. I had bratwurst while my wife looked around and the brat was great. On top of that, the staff was very friendly.

Order A whole hog almost 8 weeks ago. Was promised a it in 3-4 WEEKS! Was placed on a list in the order that they were received. Still no hog. Still no timeline. Rude as hell on the phone. Chris(owner) not even considering a refund or partial refund. Bad enough she inflated the prices due to the pandemic to take advantage of people...I live in Rio, WI and this woman's reputation has been crap for years by most locals...you can now add me to the list! Stay away from this place!
