Gary D.
The order I received was a surprise I wasn’t expecting a rope I thought they would come individually because I wasn’t going to use the whole pack at a time. Didn’t need to thaw the whole rope. Beside that the sausage’s were great tasting.
Jacqueline G.

Alan W.
I've had your sausage before years ago when I was in Brooklyn and I have to say it has not changed. It is still one of the finest I've ever had Thank You...!
Angel
Fantastic!!!
Greg O.
I love the HOT sausage links. I split each, pan sear on one side ... then finish in oven--- Yum. Try placing them on a toasted Thomas English muffin with CENTO sweet fried peppers and onions packed with olive oil... SO very good!
Dean R.
Good sausage. Could use a little more fennel.
Bonnie D.
Absolutely the best!

The Italian hot sausage is the bomb, it’s delicious. My Grandfather use to make Hot Italian sausage, when I was small, he use to hang it on a clothes line in the basement to dry out. So the point is your sausage taste like my grandfather’s and it’s delicious. Pop was from Naples Italy, he came right off the banana boat. I love the rolled sausage the best. Keep up the good work..
Thomas P.
Just enough heat, not overpowering. Very tasty indeed and will be ordering again when I run out!
James A.
No season needed, great flavor high quality
Bonnie D.
Your sausage is top shelf! It just does not get any better.I have referred you to many people.Thank you for bringing back so many memeories of the old days brought back as to when we made our home made sausage.God Bless!
John L.
Amazing biteand seasoning. Anthony was right!
Robert S.
actually I have not had a chance to try it yet, but it looks good. I thought that I could separate portions of the 5# rope to avoid thawing out all of it. I could not find an expiration date on the package, and since I was unable to separate the frozen package at all, I put it back in the freezer. I normally buy 2# of sausage at a time, so I have to really plan on thawing out a 5# rope. Any suggestions?

Since real authentic Italian sausage is not easy to find in Texas, being able to order it from Esposito's has been a real treat. The hot is spicy yet not overpowered with heat. It cooks great on the grill. The sausage arrives frozen despite traveling in the extreme heat of the summer. We defrost it s bit to be able to cut into portions suitable for us. Have ordered several times and will continue to do so.
Gary C.
I have both mild and hot and the hot ones are my favorite! I will say I live in CA and they barely made it here without thawing out. I suggest a faster shipping method. The dry ice was completely melted and sausage started to thaw. I would pay extra to insure they were still frozen.
John D.
Always great sausage. My cousin worked there years ago and would bring them home.
Frank J.
Expected to receive links, but received a long frozen coil. Both mild & hot.
Not what we wanted.
PATRICIA C.
I like them needs a more heat in the sausages
STEVEN C.
Miss good Italian sausage since retiring and moving from NY to San Diego. The sausage out here is crap. Even going to little Italy in San Diego wasn’t any better.
John F.
GREAT Sausage. But you sent one piece link when you showed individual links. Tough to work with. T he quality is 5 stars. But what was sent was not great.
Carol N.
Always delicious!
Kevin K.
No BS, how about the Best I ever had...
Thomas M.
not too spicy but just the right flavor
Anthony C.
I ordered the sampler,and was very disappointed with the sweet sausage,it just lacked flavor,and I could hardly taste any fennel,but I must say that the hit sausage was much better,and was pretty good,but nowhere near worth paying $9.99@ pounds.I won't be buying anything else from Esposito's,because I can buy better sausages at Restaurant Depot for $2.50-$3.50@ pound,
Jim J.
Sausage is delicious but packaging leaves a lot to be desired! All 5 lbs. of sausage arrives frozen "together" in a box with only a piece of paper between sausage links!
I can't eat 5 lbs. of sausage at one time! Was very surprised this came this way.
All other sausages I've ordered arrived vacuum sealed in separate 1 lb. packages.
Not sure if we will order again.....
Samuel G.
I have been making sausage for over 50 years. Sad to say your products are not that good. Maybe because of the production process but the sausage is extremely dry with little or no flavor. After several preparations (steamed, baked, fried, boiled and in a sauce) the results were the same, including removing the casing. Sorry but that's our experience. Good Luck

The hot are the best I’ve ever tasted in a Italian sausage great flavor was just expecting a bun length sausage product,I love grilling them.
Rich D.
Well. I already emailed and sent a picture in 2 weeks ago with no response from your company. I received the box opened it and the sausage was smashed and not from shipping. I got 8 nice sausage and the rest were like a pancake pretty sad to only take 8 sausage to a bbq I kept talking the sausage up and my buggy said. Thus is what you received I’d complain so I did. Nothing pure crickets. I didn’t pay almost $70 bucks for 8 sausages unacceptable!
Gerald P.
Great response time and delivery. Amazing sausage taste,
Darryl M.
The sausage is good but I didnt get 1
Roger G.
Made just the right way.
leo c.
The skin is tougher than the leather on my shoes when barbequed
David P.
The hot Italian sausage is very flavorful, juicy, and delicious. They cook up easily and are just hot enough to not be overpowering. I only wish that the links were a bit longer, as these don't quite fill up a complete bun.
Vincent S.
Delicious can’t get good sausage in southern Florida
GIlbert R.
Dry tasteless sausage. There is heat and no flavor. Fat content is too low and lack of any seasoning other than heat.
ALFRED D.
The sausage is great. My only problem is with the packaging where all 5 lbs is sent frozen in one package. Since I can't eat 5 lbs at 1 time I have to break it down to smaller portions which is difficult since it's frozen solid.
Anne
Delicious sausages. Just like my mom used to make
Rand L.
It’s probably one of the best sausages I’ve ever had. Very flavorful. I’ll definitely order again
Ronald G.
The best I,ve ever tasted.
James L.

The sausage was delicious. Tastes like New York sausage. I've ordered them several times and I love it. Keep up the good work.

Growing up in an Italian home with grandparents from Italy, I have to say your sausage is tasteful and reminds me of the family recipe. Very good and I will be ordering again!
Lawrence P.
Living in Georgia and cannot find real Italian sausage….but thank goodness for Espisitos!!!! The best Italian sausage I’ve ever had anywhere
Bert B.
Great products, some of the best I have eaten. Fantastic tast and texture.
I will be ordering more this summer.
Bert
Randy H.
Was a bit disappointed candidly. I think the shipment had a bit of freezer burn because when i unpacked the sausages there were a lot of ice crystals. Sausage tasted a bit "old". You could still tell seasonings were solid but the pork itself was not great.
Anthony j.
Quality is unbeatable
James P.
This is the first time I purchased Sausages from Esposito’s. I ordered the hot Italian sausages… and I love them! Delicious… the perfect amount of heat…just like I used to get in nyc. I will be buying more. Thanks Esposito’s.
Vincent D.
Excellent taste, not too spicy but enough spice to let you know it there. I highly recommend Esposito’s hot Italian sausage. Now it time to taste test my sweet Italian Sausage links.
John L.
Esposito is the best tasting sausage Ive had in years and we are grateful that they ship it to us ….Quality …Taste ….personal touch
Jim C.
Very good hot sausage but not hot enough for me.
Keith M.
I got to grill the chicken sausage today...very impressed spicy but not overboard nice crunch and great after taste.
I will be ordering more!!
JONATHAN G.
I LOVE THIS STUFF. GREAT COMING OFF THE GRILL.
I BAKED SOME UP WITH SAUER KRAUT AND THE WHOLE DISH WAS REALLY GOOD.
HIGHY RECOMMEND. ITS SPICY BUT DOES NOT TEAR YOUR HEAD OFF. JUST RIGHT!!
Stan K.
The frozen rope of sausage make it necessary to use all at once since frozen very hard to separate rings. Once thawed and separated can you refreeze the one not needed now.
Dennis L.
Excellent!!!! Great taste, and just enough Spice. Will have to try other varieties!!!
Michael S.
I’ve been looking for a certain taste for my hot Italian sausage. I’ve tried multiple online orders from different places. Looks like I found what I was looking for. Finally. Delicious hot Italian Sausage. Thank you!
Maurice B.
Excellent, Delish,I use for breakfast
Jerry C.
I love the texture and taste!!! I am a really spicy food eater, do you have any hot, hot links? The sausages are outstanding.
William M.
Very good sausage, comes frozen and somewhat of a struggle to separate into smaller portions.
Alan B.
Great product good taste
Shipping was on time. The box of sausage was very frozen so you certainly don't have to worry about thawing
Howard C.
Great hot sausage! Full flavor not swimming in the puddle of fat and grease . Haven’t had sausage this good since my childhood.
mark d.
Haven’t received anything yet
Toni P.
It was delivered in dry ice and well packed, my family loved it.
bosko, j.
EXCELLENT SAH-ZEECH
Joseph H.
On the money.......
Bob C.
My Dad always made it a point to go to ESPOSITO'S Market when he worked in NYC.
I am happy I can get the best sausages now online.
JEAN H.
I Like The Hot Sausage... Good Flavor.. Not Too Hot, Just Enough Heat To Get A Bite From Spice.. Good Texture..
Kurt W.
I love treating myself to a box or two of Esposito's Hot Italian Sausage. Whether I top homemade pizza with 'em, or add them to a pasta dish or a simple (and simply delicious) sausage, pepper and onion sandwich - these are so damn good. I get them delivered to AZ from back east to keep me in touch with great tastes.
Joe L.
Frozen solid when it got here. Had to bang them on the counter to try to break them apart. They need to find a better way to package them. But they taste great.
Matthew V.
I wanted to buy these during the summer, but, as I live in New Mexico, the summers can be quite hot and I did not want the shipping container moving through areas of high heat. Thankfully, even though I waited until cooler temperatures arrived, I saw that the sausages arrived in a large, insulated styrofoam container with dry ice, and that I could have ordered during the summer months.
The sausages are quite tasty and go well with either mustard or bbq sauce. But don't take my word for it. Go buy some yourself!
Bryan M.
Made penne pasta classico with the hot Italian sausages, bell peppers,red onions,olive oil,added some Italian season and a dash of basil,and 3 tablespoons mince garlic... sausage was great nice texture and pop.. finished off with grated parmesean cheese... already ordered some more
Dan S.
Used the sausage for pizza. Took the casing off and slowly fried. I was very pleased with the low fat content Flavor was excellent . Could have been a little more spicy but that’s just to personal taste and easy to fix. I will definitely be purchasing more and trying different sausages
MICHAEL B.
I love the hot sausage. However, the skin can be tough if you don't cook it slow. Ditto for the hot chicken sausage. The 1 oz breakfast sausage is wonderful and has a thinner skin.
I don't want to tell you how to make sausage, but any suggestion about the issue I am raising would be appreciated.
James R.
Definitely good ingredients. It just lacked flavor.
Robert S.
Hard to come by delicious Italian sausage, here in Florida, so having discovered Espositos’ has been a blessing !!
PATRICK
Best sausage ever!!
Derek k.
Great flavor sausage, I live in Colorado and had friends in from the East coast and they raved about the flavor!
Great job and I will be ordering more!
Derek
Adele S.
It’s good. I found the casing a little too thick
Charles k.
Former NY'er who cannot live without them. I have them shipped to me in Florida !
Neil
Awesome , thank you
xavier s.
Was expecting a hotter sausage, very disappointed
John L.
Best sausage hands down …
Anthony M.
Do not package all 5 lbs. in one box.
Peter D.
Great tasting g sausage, make my gravy taste extra special.
James P.
The sausage is delicious! What a treat. Best I’ve ever tasted.
Michael S.
Wow! Sausages were great. I had with pasta, onions, peppers, mushroom using Rao's marinara with garlic. My God so good. I tried some pork chops and added mozzarella cheese. Can anyone say a slice of heaven.☺
