I do have insiders knowledge of this business! After reading the reviews of this place, along with directions to the plant. I talked to one of the employees while dropping a semi truck load from a Tyson plant, he told me that they dropped another company because of "problems" with their "product". Problem Solved! For us? No now we have to run our tails off to keep up with them. I was thinking about retiring from my present job, and working here they impressed me that much. read more

Johnsonville Brats were the gold standard for decades...Now they are the worst. 80% fat 20% unknown with salt as only seasoning. Too bad & goodbye. Hope Sheboygan WI has other employment opportunities for the meat packers. Chuck Borghi read more

There's a new, really nice retail store called Johnsonville Marketplace (well it opened up about a year ago). Tons of merchandise and different flavors of brats along with their regular brats and sausage, which I love...yummy! Some of the T-shirts have funny captions and they have all sizes. I'll be back! read more

Let me start by say I was a loyal Johnsonville prudent customer; notice I said WAS! I purchased 2 packages of Johnsonville Chili Sausages, 1 package each within a day of each other from the same retail store. The day I went to cook them for myself and some friends I noticed the packages on both where the reseal zipper is wasn't properly hot pressed by Johnsonville. The sausage inside looked dry, and nothing was leaking, however as they were not sealed properly, I didn't feel comfortable eating nor serving them. I called the company and spoke with a rep by the name of Abby. She was polite and apologized and said she would replace both packages with replacement coupons. Abby said it was Johnsonville policy if 2 or more packages were involved, I would need to send pictures of the packaging as well and the purchase receipts. I sent 2 pictures with the requested info showing. I was e-mailed back by Abby 1 (one) replacement coupon. I e-mailed back as to why only one coupon was sent with NO response. I called again and was told my "file" only showed one picture. I said I would e-mail the 2nd picture again but never received a response to that e-mail. I figured at least one came through and was ok with it at that point. I went to use the coupon at the same store I purchased the original sausage from (looking over to make sure packaging was ok), when I got to the check-out the cashier said the coupon was not valid, she called her supervisor and they both worked on trying to get the coupon to work before calling over a coach/manager whom also said the coupon was not valid. I felt like a fool standing there with an invalid coupon trying to replace something that came from Johnsonville which was clearly a manufacturing problem. I called Johnsonville, and to my surprise I reached Abby, I explained the situation and she said that the coupon was valid. I also questioned her as to why she didn't follow through on her promise of send to replacement coupons and her response was that only 1 picture came through. How is it that I sent 1 e-mail with 2 picture attachments, but Johnsonville receives one picture? I asked to speak with her supervisor and was connected to Sharon. Sharon was not only rude but demeaning as well. I could not get in speak to her without being spoken over or interrupted. She insinuated that this was a "scam", I told Sharon I would do a 3 way call with her and the manager/coach as I recorded her name for reference. Sharon said no, and that she would replace the digital replacement coupon with a paper replacement coupon. I asked her how they confirmed the receipt of my e-mail, and 1 picture, but the 2nd picture which was attached to the same e-mail they did not, and Sharon could not explain. I offered to resend the e-mail, but Sharon said no, as the case is not closed. Well, Sharon you know what's closed, my relationship with Johnsonville, and yes answering your question if I would really do that to a company over one problem. YES, I felt like a fool at the store with the invalid coupon and felt humiliated as well as frustration that you would accuse me of "scamming" you multi-billion-dollar company out of $4.87 sausages. So, Johnsonville, as my grand dad would say, don't let the screen door hit you on the way out! read more

On a photo road trip this weekend, stopped into a grocery shop to pick up some bread and stuff to make a sandwich. Being full of poultry, meats in general, I saw a package of Beddar with Cheddar smoked sausage by this company, in a recloseable bag plus not enuff of it to kill me fo the next few months. I heated it up in a microwave at the hotel and it was quite tasty! I had tried this type previously when I lived in Oregon. Yummy!!! read more

Johnsonville Sausage - yummy - Meat Shops Near Me - Sheboygan Falls, Wisconsin

I tried their Bacon Jerky and it was not bad. I think, out of the packet, it was a bit dry; however, it was edible.

I'm from Wisconsin. And although I make my own sausage, I think Johnsonville makes EXCELLENT sausages... that I buy when I'm too lazy to make my own. Full disclosure: I also think the world of Klement and Usinger sausages (both companies from Wisconsin). But I do have something to share about the Johnsonville "one star rating/comment" from someone who had a major problem with "caraway seeds" in Johnsonville's Italian sausages. I'm pretty certain that those seeds he/she found in those sausages were either anise or fennel seeds... (either are VERY appropriate for Italian sausage... caraway is pretty much only used in German bratwurst... not Italian). BTW... I only gave Johnsonville 4 stars because they are not quite as good as mine. ;-) read more

omg, do not work at their corp office in sheboygan falls, unless you crave to be back in a high school clicky type environment. the credit manager here needs to grow up and treat her personnel professionaly . i can say first hand that they do not trust you, they actually think you are a 60's era joke. lately i see the billboards that claims "my work matters" ..well if it really matters to the ownership, than start acting like professionals., change starts from the top. read more

I picked up 2 packages of Johnsonville Italian sausage to make a quick Italian dinner. YUCK! Whoever at this company decided to add horrid carroway seed made a huge mistake. Carroway seed does NOT belong in Italian sausage! Tastes really bad. :( read more

I worked there for 2 years and before they split up line 3 to go to line 4 impingement at meadowside was the best you could work for everybody went by the rules everybody quotes people and then I was gone for three months because I had gotten pneumonia when I came back it was completely different people did care about the product they were attacking big chunk out of the sausages and actually letting it go through when I would coach the people biggest about caring about the product I was the one that would get in trouble because everybody ganged up on me I mean people were touching trash cans and then touching the product. People's noses were dripping snot out of them right on for the lines where you pack the sausages but because a certain Rover named Reggie I would try to coach him and Alex and because they were a grey helmet but but started working their way after I started they were getting upset at me and everybody ganged up against me because I was caring about the product and the company and the outcome was they discharged me and didn't even give me a reason why. There's nothing I can do about it now except Enlighten people of what does go on while the packaging process happens that people don't care and when a person did come in to the company and actually care what happened was I got discharged. read more
