HUKDONFAWNIX Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 Hi everyone, I need some recommendations for a place that sells/makes pepperettes in the GTA (preferably Brampton/Mississauga area). I have tried the ones that you can buy at Sobey's, Zehrs, Fortino's etc. and in my opinion they're no good and don't compare to the ones that I usually buy at the Sportsmen Show. Unfortunately I can't remember any of the names of the businesses that are at the shows. Does anyone know a shop I can buy some GOOD peperettes from? I need to stock up for the ice fishing season. Thanks in advance for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyb Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 KARPATY DELI. It's a pretty popular polish deli that will give you a good selection...they've expanded a lot recently, so they shouldn't be too hard to find in the phonebook. Two locations I can think of are: Bovaird one block west of Hurontario, kitty-corner to Rona Hurontario just south of Dundas in the Price Chopper plaza. There's also Starsky's at the corner of Winston Churchill and Dundas, in the Classic Bowl plaza....pretty much any european deli will give you lots of stuff to sample, till you find the one you like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misfish Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 (edited) Ok follow me here if ya can.LOL You know where labarons is? Well if you do,then follow that road right past Labarons,dont stop at Labarons or you,ll have no cash for thier great peppertts and the rest of thier fine meats. It,s a hiden jewel. Rabba,s use to be good too. Boy if I go back to those foods,I,ll put 50 pounds on so fast.LOL I do have to fight the urge off. My fav from Brants was the polish sausage with cheese on a bun. DROOOOOLLLL Edited December 29, 2008 by misfish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forrest Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 Try the original spicy smoke treat....summer sausage (wont fit in your pocket)...mennonites make good stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Cliff Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 Well, if you intend to "stock up", Mennonites do make the best stuff. A trip up to Elmira or such would probably be worth while. I get all of mine made from venison, my cost including the pork is about $5.00 a lb but they are fantastic.

I do enjoy Schniders European Style as well.. Try the Mennonites though.... and dont forget an extra dry summer sausage!!!! G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cliff, I know what you mean.... got my deer burger meat done in pepperettes in one of the local butcher shop and man are they ever good. Cost me $54.00 total. Gave them 5lbs of deer meat and they added the same amount of porc meat. Next year if I get another will definitely get pepperettes done with the deer burger meat.

bigugli Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Some of the Germans used to go to the St. Lawrence farmers market on Saturdays. Beyond that, nothing beats going to St Jacobs for dry hung summer sausage and peperettes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misfish Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 (edited) If you want quality,I mean real quality,head up here to Counrty meats. They are well known, and have the best beef bacon you will ever have. Pepperettes,he has too. You did ask for the Toronto area first.

bh87ss Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Check out Wally Parrs Sausage just south of Hamilton on Hwy # 6 just before you get into Caledonia. Makes the best pepps and has a lot of other stuff in the store. If anyone was ever in BPS he had Izumi sponser these last year and they sold them at the cash checK out. I have also seen them throughout the GTA in variety stores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
