About Us
Over 50 years ago, we began more than a sausage company—we created a legacy that led to Sheboygan, Wisconsin, being known as the "Bratwurst Capital of the World." Sheboygan has always had a proud German heritage—people with a strong work ethic and a history of excellent sausage. Old Wisconsin is built on this foundation, and it can still be tasted today in our quality and slow, hand crafted approach to sausage making. Sheboygan was a natural place to start. The unique climate on the shores of Lake Michigan is perfect for sausage making. With that knowledge, Old Wisconsin began as Thielmann’s, a small sausage shop owned and operated by Frank Thielmann and William Stolzman. Even today, we still use many of their high-quality sausage recipes. Due to increased demand, we opened our first plant in 1953 and changed our name to Thielmann’s Old Wisconsin Sausage Company shortly after.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this really fit a strict keto diet?
Yes. Each serving has 0g sugar, 5g protein, and only 90 calories, which keeps carbs low and macros clean enough for keto, low carb, and gluten free eaters.
Is this a clean label snack I can feel good about?
It is naturally hardwood smoked with no fillers, no extenders, and no binders, so the ingredient list stays short and recognizable for shoppers who care about clean eating.
Can I count this toward my daily protein goal on a cut?
Yes. At 5g of protein per serving, it is an easy way to add a protein boost between meals without adding sugar or empty carbs during a cut or recomp.
Is this gluten free certified?
It is formulated to be gluten free, which makes it a safe pantry pick for anyone avoiding wheat, including those with celiac or gluten sensitivity.
Will the spice help with cravings on a low carb diet?
The bold Serrano, Jalapeño, and Red Pepper heat delivers strong flavor that satisfies snack cravings without triggering the sugar cycles that derail low carb eating.
Is this a smart desk snack for my afternoon slump?
Yes. It gives you a protein forward option at your desk without the sugar crash that comes from granola bars or candy, which fits a wellness focused workday.
Can I eat this during a fasting window if I am doing clean keto?
It is a solid food, so it will break a fast. However, for those following low carb or cyclical keto, it is an ideal snack between eating windows thanks to the high protein, zero sugar profile.
Does this have any sugar alcohols or hidden sweeteners?
No. The 0g sugar claim is genuine, and the flavor comes from real peppers, smoke, and meat rather than sugar substitutes or artificial sweeteners.
How does this compare to turkey sticks or chicken snack sticks for clean eating?
It uses premium pork and beef cuts smoked over hardwood, which gives a richer flavor and a more satisfying bite than most poultry based snack sticks on the market.
Is this better for me than a protein bar?
It is lower in sugar and free of the binders and syrups found in many bars, making it a cleaner protein source for shoppers who read labels carefully.
Is the price worth it for a premium snack?
For shoppers who care about ingredient quality, the handcrafted smoking process and no filler formulation justify paying more per ounce than mass produced jerky.
How should I store these sausage sticks after opening?
Before opening, the sticks are fully shelf stable and can be kept in your pantry. Once opened, reseal the pouch and store it in the refrigerator to maintain peak freshness for the remaining sticks.
Are these sausage sticks ready to eat right out of the package?
Yes. They are fully cooked and naturally smoked, so you can eat them straight from the package with no prep, cooking, or reheating required.
How many sticks are in one serving?
Each serving is calculated to deliver 90 calories, 5g of protein, and 0g of sugar. Refer to the nutrition panel on the package for the exact stick count per serving.
Do these work for someone with a gluten sensitivity?
Yes. The product is formulated to be gluten free, making it a safe snack option for people with celiac disease or anyone avoiding gluten.
Are these safe for kids to eat?
Yes, the product itself is shelf stable and made with quality ingredients. However, the Serrano, Jalapeño, and Red Pepper blend delivers a real kick of heat, so younger children or spice sensitive eaters may find it too hot. Use your discretion based on your child's palate.
What comes in the package when I order it?
You will receive a single sealed pouch or multipack of Old Wisconsin Hot and Spicy Sausage Snack Sticks in the size you selected: 28 oz resealable bulk, 4 oz single, or 4 oz pack of 4. Nothing extra is required to enjoy them.
Is this product safe to eat past the printed date?
For best quality, consume by the date printed on the package. Because the sticks are shelf stable, they are often still safe shortly after, but always inspect for off smells, texture, or appearance before eating.
Does this product contain any common allergens?
It is gluten free with no fillers or extenders. Always check the printed ingredient list for the most accurate allergen information specific to your sensitivity.
What is the difference between sausage sticks and beef jerky?
Sausage sticks are made from ground seasoned meat that is stuffed into a casing and smoked, giving a softer, more flavorful bite. Beef jerky is made from whole muscle cuts that are dried, resulting in a chewier, leaner texture. Sausage sticks typically deliver bolder seasoning and a richer mouthfeel.
