Figured I'd check here before I had it shipped from the one true mecca of 'hot guts'. Tue Aug 02 14:32:47 -0700 2005 0 PJ 1 1197015 they were here for the BBQ fest in June...otherwise, you might need some shipped up!

Tue Aug 02 22:54:03 -0700 2005 1197015 0 Hank Rearden 1 1197029 I've tried the sausage at a number of local barbecue spots, and found nothing that reminds me of Elgin. I mean in style, not just quality -- something closer to kielbasa seems to be par for the course around here. I could go for some of that greasy Southside hot-gut right about now.
