We stopped in at this store after seeing signs on the highway. What a wonderful experience. The workers were helpful guiding you to what you needed and answering any questions. We had a cooler in the car so we bought breakfast sausage & a pack of link sausage. I've only cooked the breakfast sausage. It was delicious. I plan on ordering some because they ship their products. read more

Great country sausage, bacon and link sausage. They have a lot of homemade items. The attendant very knowledgeable. A nice country store.

Nice store. Very friendly staff/owner(s). Great variety of sausage (20+?) types. I got a few and just cooked off the Visalia onion and cheddar sausage - delicious !! read more

Awesome selection. Had walk-in order for 20 individual lbs of sausages. Vacuumed sealed and taken care of efficiently.

Bought bacon from there and had mold on it. Did some investigating and was told it ain't the first time other people have got sick from eating their bacon. So I guess they just wash the mold off the bacon and probably other meats as well and stick them in the case to sell. Anything to save a dollar at the expense of others well being and hard earned money. I won't be back. I warn others to stay away read more

The sausage is absolutely amazing, so are the other snack foods. My favorite is the beef jerky'. The service is amazing, everyone is truly so sweet. It's a very small town feeling. It is very sweet. We got sausage to make sausage patties (2 lbs) and sausage links for bbq. Both were absolutely delicious. We also got Beef Jerky and then got some Chocolate covered pretzels. I absolutely loved all of it. 5/5! I definitely recommend this establishment. read more

Stopped by on a complete whim while driving from Albany to Atlanta. To keep this short and sweet...it's a gas station with some extras, lol. They offer fresh sausage for sale as well as a few prepared items. I opted for a sausage dog, marinated bean salad, and a pickle. Everything was tasty but not figure friendly ;). They also had some other tasty looking salads, pasta, broccoli, and potato that all looked great. As well as some slices of pecan pie and banana pudding...yummy looking! Overall, not bad. Friendly staff and easy to get in/out and back on the road. I'll be back I'm sure! read more

I don't recommend this place unless you are a die-hard UGA fan. The butcher actually informed us (unnecessarily) that we "were in Bulldog country"; he said this in response to the school logo on our shirts. Then he literally barked at us! A grown man working at his profession; barking- far from professional. But then again, we were "in dawg country", so I guess our expectations should not have been so high. However, the food was pretty good! The bathrooms were not so good though. read more

I bought some pork chops and other stuff and at the cashier asked, "can you change a couple of twenties for me? Tens or fives?" "hmm, I don't think so; we're short of both tens and fives." "not a problem; I'm trying to give my grandkids fifty bucks each." The store manager steps up, and says, "a July 4th weekend and we can't be giving out change." "Okay; (and obviously joking) hope you're not mad." "I don't know you well enough to be mad at you. This is a grocery store and not a bank." I could easily have told her to fuck off but I didn't, of course. The lady had an attitude, was rude, and confrontational. There's another meat market a few hundred yards away, something I'll remember next time I need pork chops. read more

Great variety of sausages and meat cuts. Had the pork loin sandwich and took a bag of jerky to boot. First time here but I'll come with cooler next time I'm headed northbound on the FL/GA parkway. read more

Cooked up the jalapeno/cheese sausage and the fresh/mild yesterday. WOW. OFF THE FREAKING CHAIN. If one could live on a diet of sausage alone, these would be the ones. I'll keep this brief. If you are anywhere near Cordele, make the effort to find Salt Lick Sausage. You will not be disappointed. IIRC, sausage was $3.99/lb. Dang, forgot to mention, these guys have some fantastic bacon too. It's the thick cut kind with the rind intact. read more

I was in my way to Atlanta coming from Leesburg and saw this place. Had to stop here. This place is a gem. Old fashioned country store. Love it. This place is so friendly and hospitable. They have a super large variety of home made sausages. Links, bulk and deer as well. If you look on the shelves they also have some good home made sauces for you to try too. A definite must stop. read more

I typically always go to Stripling's out of tradition. Actually Stripling's used to be where Salt Lick is now. I have a lot of memories of coming here when I was little. We would get sausage dogs and Yoohoos. That was back when it was Stripling's. I went today to go to their little beer cave to get some beer. Prices aren't horrible. The girl at the check out could have been a little more friendly, but she wasn't rude or anything. read more

SL Sausage Company - Meat Shops Near Me - Cordele, Georgia

My Husband and I live in Powder Speings GA just north of Atalanta. We visited Family in Albeny and came across this JIM of a store. The stakes, sausages, jams and other itams in the store are just what the doctor ordered. We've made the trip back down just to shop at SL Sausage and always adding something new to our shopping list. We look forward to going back again and again. You should stop by You will not be sorry. read more

AN UNEXPECTED SURPRISE! As we were returning home from to North Georgia, we blew past this sausage store. I had my husband pop a U-turn and go back because I was reminded of this incredible chicken sausage that we purchased in Canton, Oh and I thought that just maybe... When we entered the store, we realized that this was more than just a little sausage store because they had ham, fresh steaks, thick peppered bacon and other cuts of meat. They had mounds of fresh sausage and my husband stopped to order a variety of links, (hot, mild and jalapeno). I walk away to explore some and return after a bit. As I get closer, I realize that the employee is handling the sausage with his bare hands, so I motion to my husband who seems unbothered. At this point, I become unhinged and find myself saying "Dude, dude where is your glove? You're touching the sausage with your bare hands!" He quickly apologies and puts on a glove. I give my husband the evil eye as the burly co-worker begins to explain that the sausage has to be cooked and that all the germs will be killed off. He tells me that the glove carries more bacteria than the meat. I am saying nothing at this point because I am laughing at the sheer ridiculousness of it all. I feel transported to Mexico when I had this same conversation in my head. It too was wasted energy. I suddenly realize where I am: in the country, in a butcher shop, with three men who have no problem with dirt. I just walk away and continue shopping. In the section off to the left of the day, you can purchase fresh pecans, syrup, jelly, honey and chocolates. They also had tables in that area for you to sit a spell and enjoy that sausage biscuit. To the right of the entrance the store resembles a convenience store with groceries and beverages. They also had hot breakfast sandwiches which were just being placed in the warmer while we were standing nearby. I had seen a couple of guys eating a sausage, cheese and egg biscuit and when I asked them about it and they said they were good so we decided to give them a try. Now, I am not a "biscuit eater" simply because they are just too heavy and I don't usually eat sandwiches for breakfast. Most of the time, I am not eating bread at all. However, we are on a very tight schedule today and I know that grabbing this sandwich will save time. We immediately begin to eat our sandwiches once we get in the car and I am really surprised by the quality of this simple sandwich. The biscuit was nice and light while being perfectly seasoned, not salty or greasy. That sausage! What!!! Very fresh, not salty, not greasy, just smooth! Nothing but quality here Baby! Wow, how did they do that! Although I originally went into the shop looking for chicken sausage, I was really impressed by this quality pork sausage. It was very unexpected in the best way possible! As we are pulling out of the parking lot, we notice the sign that has their web address and I snap a quick photo because they deliver!!! I definitely recommend that you stop by and give this butcher shop a try because their meat looked very fresh and clean while that sausage was like none I have ever tasted, (except my own). It is the perfect addition to your holiday table as a side or in your breakfast and dinner casseroles. Enjoy! ***12-17 After trying each of our selections: ground hot, Vidalia link with cheese and a mild link, I found this sausage to be very well made. It was not greasy, it tasted fresh, was flavorful without being salty and it was delicious! We liked everything we purchased! WINNING!! read more

This is a must stop on our way home from Tallahassee. The main reason? The jalapeno cheddar sausage. The store is basically a country store with a restaurant and gas station attached. You can get all the southern standards here like fresh pork rinds and chitlins, along with fresh vegetables when they are in season. The staff is nice, the place is clean and the variety of food stuffs quite amazing. read more

You can't go wrong stopping here for sausage or any meats! Puts the chain grocery stores to shame. I am spoiled by the freshness and quality. If traveling bring a cooler and buy some ice. The sausage is great for a Saturday morning breakfast! read more

Our son brought sausages home from here. They are really great ! Loading up for the freezer next trip !

Beef jerky was awesome! I also bought some pecans - honey flavored.

This place was a real find for us, driving along Highway 300 (GA-FL Parkway). Great sausage dog and roast beef sandwich. The meats looked wonderful - wish we'd had room for another cooler - I'd have filled it. PLUS The people are terrific. This will be a regular stop for us ... and I'll bring that extra cooler. read more

I love this place, although I haven't personally been since 2005. I have a Great Aunt that lives in Eatonton, GA and we drive through Cordele to get to her house. They make the absolute BEST sausage I have ever eaten. I've been eating it since I was a little girl. I'd beg my grandmother to go get "sausage from the gas station." While I haven't been in years my grandmother recently brought me back some sausage and I'm going to eat it for lunch today! read more

Stopped in Slat lick to gas up in Oct. 2010. While there we decided to go in and saw all the meat and sausages. I bought about three feet of it, got to Florida cooked it right up, and Man!, I wanted more.. I'll be back in Dec. 2010 and will buy a Bunh, I mean a BUNCH! VERY, VERY GOOD. It's Dec. and I'm on my way to Cordele, GA. Anderson, Stockbridge, Mi. read more

Venus R. I ordered my first shipment of sausage on 13 Dec 2013 order#612. I had it shipped to friends and they were so pleased with the packaging and called the entire family in to view. Not only that but they could not wait to sample and I was told the taste of the sausage was delicious. I placed an order for myself the very next day. I want to commend you on a job well done as far as presentation, taste, and quick delivery. read more

Usually, this place has clean restrooms. Not today, both men's and women's had overflowing trash. No toilet tissue in the women's and no paper towels. Great place to stop for a snack, piece of pie, and beverage, though. We've stopped here a lot and never seen the restrooms in such bad shape. read more

I'm a big fan of Salt Lick and stop by EVERY time on the way through, usually for a sausage dog.

I live in Colorado and travel to Georgia about twice a year and every time I go through Cordele, I have to stop and buy beef jerky there, It is absolutely the BEST Jerky I have found. read more

We stopped in the Salt Lick last year. They feature their own sausage. We bought a 3 foot length of the mild. We also bought some of their own jerky. The sausage is probably the best we have ever eaten. I regretted having only bought three feet of it. Next time we go back I am bringing a cooler so we can stock up. The jerky was the real thing and it was very good. It was gone in no time at all. Didn't last the afternoon. read more
