The story
Eleven Opa's craft products. The definitive collection.
The big Opa's gift box: eleven products from the smokehouse, packed cold in one insulated box, with a note from you if it's a gift.
The Opa's Ultimate Sampler is the most complete collection from our smokehouse — eleven products that together tell the full story of Opa's craft, from heritage sausages and whole cuts to cured meats and traditional favorites. Each product is fully cooked and ready to slice, serve, or share. Built for serious gifting, holiday entertaining, or the kind of milestone where you want to give something remembered.
Set the Boneless Peppered Holiday Ham as the centerpiece for a holiday table and arrange sliced sausages, summer sausage, and Canadian bacon on a board with sharp cheddar, olives, and crackers. Build a tasting flight that walks guests through bold to balanced — Country Blend, Beef, Jalapeño, Jalapeño Cheddar, Hatch Green Chile, Chicken Poblano Monterey Jack — paired with grainy mustard and crusty bread. Save the cured beef and Canadian bacon for travel, lunchboxes, or a week of effortless dinners.

How to heat it
Everything in the box is fully cooked or ready to eat.
Smoked sausage and bratwurst: medium heat, never high, turned often — grill (indirect, 8–10 minutes), skillet (½ inch of simmering water about 12 minutes, then 1–2 minutes dry), oven (375°F, about 10 minutes, flip halfway) or air fryer (300°F, no preheat, 7 minutes). Microwave not recommended. Cheese varieties run a little lower.
Summer sausage and Peppered Cured Smoked Beef: slice cold, straight from the package.
Boneless Peppered Ham: best cold or at room temperature; to warm, 275°F, covered, a splash of water, 20–30 minutes — warm to the touch, not hot.
Canadian bacon: warm the slices in a skillet over medium heat, a minute or two per side, or serve cold.
