What is Texas Ridge Sausage Club?

Texas Ridge Sausage Club is a Buyers' Club for pastured pork products. Rather than simply purchasing individual retail pork products our farm produces, select customers become “members” of this Buyers’ Club in order to receive exclusive access to special bulk pork products, particularly sausage, at a discounted rate. These products are ONLY available to Sausage Club Members.

Cost of Membership:

For a one-time $20 membership fee, you receive lifetime access to Sausage Club offerings, so long as Sausage Club exists. Join anytime and there's no need to renew. Membership fees are non-refundable. Members receive access to Sausage Club Shares and products, but are under no obligation to purchase products.

Sausage Club Shares:

Picture
FULL SHARE = 60 pounds of sausage (50 pounds bulk uncased sausage, 10 pounds link cased sausage) = $400+tax* (retail value $520)

HALF SHARE = 30 pounds of sausage (25 pounds bulk uncased sausage, 5 pounds link cased sausage) = $200+tax* (retail value $260)

Sausage share pricing breaks down to $6.00/pound for bulk uncased sausage and $10.00/pound for links. This saves members $2.00 per pound over Texas Ridge's retail sausage prices.

*If link sausage isn't available, members will receive equivalent value in additional bulk sausage.

How it works:

Sausage Club harvests take place every six months, generally in January and July of each year. Members reserve their sausage shares in December or June of each year for that term’s harvest. Members select sausage from a list of custom Texas Ridge sausage flavors that may vary from harvest to harvest. Members may also be given exclusive access to other specialty bulk pork products not available to non-members. Any extra sausage left over after members have claimed their shares is marketed to new or future members.

Is sausage made with the same pork I buy at the farmers market?

YES! The hogs used for Sausage Club have been raised their entire lives in our program, under our management. They receive the same non-GMO grain ration as our retail pigs, and are raised without chemicals, pesticides, medications, hormones or vaccines. A pig becomes a candidate for Sausage Club because it is too big, too small, too mature, or in some other way no longer suitable for our program, and doesn’t meet the criteria for our regular harvests.

Sausage Club hogs will be harvested on our farm and turned into sausage at a professional meat processing facility of our choosing.

Payment options:

Members will be invoiced for their sausage shares when they are ready to pick up. Members can pay for their entire share up front, or they can choose to pay in installments over up to 5 months. Members who pay up front and take delivery of their entire share at once receive an additional 5% discount!

Storage & delivery:

 Sausage will come frozen and packaged in approximately 1-pound packages. Sausage Club pick ups will take place at Texas Ridge in Deary or at a drop point location to be determined. Members have 2 options for claiming their sausage shares:
  • Members can pay for and pick up their entire share of sausage at once. Members who choose this option save an additional 5% on the price of their share.
  • Members can pick up their share a little at a time over 6 months.  For full share holders who pick up monthly, this would be 10 pounds per month for 6 months; half share would get 5 pounds per month for 6 months. This option is perfect for people with limited freezer storage.
