Barackwurst or Hillbasa – both are delicious choices

Franktuary is getting into the political spirit. With the primary election just a little over 2 weeks away, Franktuary has cooked up a poll of their own. The Sausage Poll – from now until election day – Franktuary is offering 2 special items:

  • Barackwurst – featuring an array of patriotic condiments, is a half-link of bratwurst and a half-link of knockwurst that have come together to support one common cause.
  • Hillbasa – prepared with nearly identical condiments, is a full kielbasa link served with a mandated side of Bill pickles.

They are keeping a tally of which item is ordered more on the website SausagePoll.com – the tally is updated daily. So far the Barackwurst is in the lead but it is anyone’s race. Stop by Franktuary to literally eat your vote.
