Kaufmann Poultry

Good quality chicken. Nice apple chicken sausage.

Kaufmann’s is fast becoming my husband’s and my go-​to vendor of chicken at the West Side Market. The selection is great, the quality, and customer service is excellent. You can really tell the difference between the taste of a fresh Kaufmann roasting chicken and the big box grocery store roasting chickens. We regularly purchase: roasting chickens, backs & necks (for amazing soup), and bone-​in thighs.

Ohmygod… chicken beer bratwurst.
Even during on a Saturday afternoon on Memorial Day weekend it was worth a trip over to Kaufmann Poultry for our cookout the next day. And as always, the folks were friendly and super-​helpful!
Besides that damn credit card minimum, I see not one negative about this place. You’d think it wouldn’t be hard to rack up a hefty price tag with all their awesome poultry products, but everything is so cheap it’s crazy! We got 3lb of chicken tenders to marinate for kabobs and 4 beer brats, which just got us over the $ 10 min.
Let me just say the brats alone were worth $ 10 in taste alone and I’m definitely coming back for the burgers and breakfast sausages! The tenders were perfectly trimmed, mild and… well, tender! I typically pound out chicken a little but with these it wasn’t needed.
Kaufmann, you have my poultry business for life!

Whenever I have poultry needs, I stop by Kaufmann’s at the Westside Market. I especially love the chicken sausage. I think my favorite purchase was cheddar chicken brats. I made them into a brat cheddar potato soup. The people behind the counter are always friendly and answer any questions you have. For example, when I bought the brats, I found out it was the first time they made them. I like it when I feel comfortable chatting.

This place has the best chicken sausage at the West side market. It is fresh and the flavors are amazing. They are so busy I usually call a day or 2 before and put my order in
The spicy Italian is my favorite. I also really like the traditional chicken breakfast sausage.
Have you ever had chicken sausage where you bite into a piece and you can not chew it. Totally disgusting. This never happens here.
I sometimes buy the spicy Italian in bulk and make a huge pot of spaghetti sauce with mushrooms and San Marzano tomatoes.
The other poultry products are very good. The chicken appears really fresh and is pretty tasty.
They also have really friendly customer service.
Places like this make it almost impossible to go vegetarian!
They even have rabbit meat. I have always wanted to try it! Does it taste like chicken?
