This is new! Zaycon Foods has upcoming Illinois pickups for Carve Master Boneless Smoked Ham and Sausage Links.

Again, if you’re not familiar with Zaycon Foods,

• They sell fresh meat products by the case.
• Head to local pickup locations at a specified date and time to pick up your order.
• They schedule events across the country; and were last in IL with chicken only this past fall.
• Here’s my review last year of their chicken, if you’re curious and want to see some pix!
• They’ve never had a ham/sausage event here, so can’t speak to that yet.
