Running a show, funfair, festival, or event means feeding thousands of hungry visitors quickly, safely, and memorably. Food is often one of the main reasons people return year after year, and nothing delivers flavour, speed, and impact quite like authentic German sausages.
At The Sausage Haüs, we specialise in German sausages for showmen, supplying the very same products enjoyed at Munich’s Oktoberfest, German funfairs, and street-food stalls across Europe. Combined with Baird Foods’ reliable UK logistics, we bring 300 years of German heritage straight to your catering stand.
Why German Sausages Are Perfect for Showmen
Showmen need products that tick multiple boxes: high volume, fast cooking times, consistent quality, and customer appeal. This is where German sausages for showmen shine:
-
Speed of service: Our sausages are pre-cooked, so you only need to grill, steam, or warm them. That means quicker queues and happier customers.
-
Authentic flavour: Products like the Bacon Krakauer, Bratwurst, and Cheese Frankfurter are smoky, meaty, and satisfying — exactly what visitors expect from a fairground treat.
-
Durability on the stand: Whether you keep them hot in a bain-marie, on a grill, or on rollers, they hold their shape and flavour.
-
Profit margins: With strong customer demand, upselling opportunities (e.g. “loaded dogs” or combo meals), and low waste, sausages are one of the most profitable items for show catering.
This is why thousands of European funfairs rely on German sausages for showmen — and why more and more UK operators are making them their number one choice.

Food Safety: A Critical Advantage for Showmen
One of the biggest worries for any showman is food safety. With large crowds, fast-moving service, and outdoor conditions, you need products you can rely on.
Our German sausages for showmen are pre-cooked and pasteurised, meaning they are safe to eat even cold. This drastically reduces the risk of undercooking, contamination, or customer complaints. Whether you serve them straight from a grill, a bain-marie, or on a busy roller, you can be confident they are fully cooked through.
On top of that, Baird Foods’ cold-chain logistics guarantee that every delivery arrives in perfect condition. From temperature-controlled storage to reliable nationwide distribution, the sausages remain safe and consistent from our facility to your stand.
This combination of pre-cooked safety and secure delivery gives showmen peace of mind — ensuring customers always enjoy a safe, reliable, and authentic product, even in the busiest show environment.
Menu Inspiration: How Showmen Can Use German Sausages
Adding variety and flair to your food offer helps boost sales. Here are some ideas designed specifically for show settings:
-
The Funfair Dog: A jumbo hotdog topped with crispy onions, ketchup, and mustard.
-
Currywurst Dog: Sliced Krakauer covered in curry ketchup and fries — a German street-food legend.
-
Loaded Cheese Dog: Cheese Frankfurter with melted cheddar, jalapeños, and crispy bacon bits.
-
Family Meal Deal: 2 sausages, 2 soft drinks, and a portion of fries — bundle pricing boosts volume.
-
Breakfast Dog: Serve a Krakauer with egg and hash browns in a roll for early event-goers.
All of these concepts highlight the flexibility of German sausages for showmen and help you maximise customer spend.
The Heritage Story That Sells
Today’s customers don’t just buy food — they buy the story. Being able to tell your visitors that your sausages come from Hardy Remagen, a German family business with 300 years of history, adds instant credibility.
This heritage story sets you apart from generic catering offers. When you market your products as authentic German sausages for showmen, you’re tapping into a tradition loved across Europe. Pair that with the reliability of Baird Foods’ UK distribution, and you’re offering more than food: you’re offering reassurance, quality, and trust.
Marketing Benefits for Showmen
Promoting your stand is just as important as the food itself. Here’s how German sausages for showmen give you a marketing edge:
-
Authenticity: “Real German Bratwurst” or “Smoky Krakauer from Germany” looks fantastic on your menu boards.
-
Social media appeal: Loaded hotdogs with colourful toppings are highly shareable on Instagram and TikTok.
-
Upsell opportunities: Meal deals, double sausages, or premium toppings let you boost margins.
-
Repeat customers: Once someone tastes a proper German sausage, they’ll seek you out the next time the show comes to town.
By positioning yourself as the stand for authentic German sausages for showmen, you build loyalty and set your brand apart.

So whether you’re catering for thousands or just a few hundred, The Sausage Haüs has a solution — from full wholesale supply backed by Baird Foods logistics to convenient Jumbo Hotdogs at Costco.
