Queen City Sausage Co. Goetta Adds Tradition to Thanksgiving Stuffing Recipe
A few years ago, my friend Matt Grimes, the owner of the Colonial Cottage Inn Restaurant in Erlanger KY created this wonderful Goetta Stuffing recipe. As I indicated to Matt, this is the best tasting stuffing I have ever had. The Cottage serves this delicious treat for a limited-time during the holidays.
With Matt’s permission, I am posting the recipe. Queen City goetta is actually about 60% less fat than the competition yet delivers the full goetta flavor and experience. No MSG. Try this recipe for yourself. Better yet, stop by the historic Colonial Cottage Inn Restaurant and taste for yourself. Yum!
Happy Thanksgiving!

The principles set forth by Elmer Hensler in 1965 are the same ones we honor in every batch of craft-sausage today.
They are simple and real and they are the framework around which the Queen City Sausage brand is built:
For our customers, our families, and ourselves, Queen City Sausage creates highest-quality German sausages.
Queen City Sausage customers deserve and will receive the very best service possible.
Customers are entitled to and will always be offered Queen City Sausage at a fair and honest price.
