This past Saturday, Nueske’s had the pleasure of attending the Isthmus Beer & Cheese Festival in Madison, Wisconsin.  Let us assure you, there was no shortage of good brews, excellent cheeses, or Applewood Smoked Meats. For $40.00 a ticket, thirsty (and hungry) festival-goers from Madison and beyond flocked to the Alliant Energy Center Exhibition Hall […]

Our most recent tasting dinner was at Bark Hot Dogs in Brooklyn, just last night, and Nueske’s smoky specialties were prepared as part of each course and each course was served with a special Sixpoint Craft Ale.  Bark Hot Dogs has been a great partner to us and we were very happy that they paired […]

Recently, we’ve had quite a few people call us asking for an even thicker slice of bacon than our classic sliced Applewood Smoked Bacon – which was no slouch in the thickness department as it was.  In the past, we would have suggested that these individuals buy a piece of our unsliced slab bacon and […]

We know that a great many people are enjoying more heat in their foods these days.  Jalapeños, while on the low end of the heat scale, provide a little zip and the pleasant note of roasted pepper when cooked on the grill.  You can stuff these little peppers with a great many delicious things and […]

Our Peppered Bacon Bread is a golden loaf of bread with a thick, chewy crust and an interior filled with bubbly, slightly sour dough enhanced with bits of zesty black tellicherry peppercorns and savory pieces of our Applewood Smoked Peppered Bacon. Simply cut into slices, toasted, and buttered; this bread is a winner.  If you […]

We were just told that today, February 25th, is National Clam Chowder Day.  You might wonder why we bring this up.  That’s simple: chowder is really, really good – but it’s even better with bacon.  Here in Wittenberg, we generally don’t make it any other way. You may not think of the Midwest when you […]

One of our favorite home cooks – who also happens to be a Certified Culinary Professional (CCP) and awfully nice person in general – recently shared with us her favorite way to serve our Applewood Smoked Bacon-Wrapped Pork Filets.  We thought you might like to recreate this meal idea from Ann Hall Every at home and that […]

The Nueske family has had their smokehouse and meat shop in Wittenberg, Wisconsin since 1933.  The building that Nueske’s Applewood Smoked Meats is in today isn’t our original building, but you can still see our original smokehouse – along with a few other really nifty old buildings from our past – standing out in front […]

For the past few years Nueske’s is proud to have been invited to display a special ornament on the decorated holiday trees in front of the Wisconsin governor’s residence.  This year there are six different trees representing six areas important to our state.  The 2010 ornament from Nueske’s Applewood Smoked Meats is hung on the […]
