Common Questions About Our Products
Our customer service team is here to answer questions about our company, the ingredients we use, and the products that we offer. We have rounded up a few of our most frequently asked questions about our products.
Whether you purchase our smoked sausage or breakfast items, here is a little bit of information you might not know about our products!
Is the “Use By” date valid once the package is opened?
The “Use By” date on the package is only good for an unopened package. Once the package is opened, you should consume the product within 3 days or freeze to preserve quality, freshness, and flavor.
Why is the “Use By” date only valid for an unopened package?
Once the package is opened the product is exposed to oxygen and any bacteria that you may have on your hands or other surfaces. Over time this will cause food spoilage, which can make you ill. Therefore, we recommend consuming within 3 days of opening and storing the leftovers in an airtight container in your refrigerator.
Can I freeze your products?
Absolutely! We recommend freezing if you are not going to eat the entire package within 3 days of opening; this helps to preserve quality and flavor. We recommend freezing our smoked sausage, breakfast links and chorizo for no longer than 2 months, and our bacon for no longer than 3 months. Once thawed, enjoy within a day to maintain optimal quality.
Why do you put pork casing on a beef sausage?
Kiolbassa has been using our family’s recipe of making beef sausage using a pork casing since 1949. We believe that this is the highest quality option available. Pork casings are tender and create that signature sausage snap! We partner with the best in the industry to purchase the highest quality pork casing, and it shows in our product.
We understand that not everyone eats pork and that is why we have recently formulated our Hatch Chile & Cheddar Chicken Breakfast Links which are 100% pork-free! Sam’s Club currently sells them in over 250 clubs.
