Does anyone know of any pre-packaged single servings of summer sausage or any other kind of pre-cooked meat or sausage? It's such a mess to slice up a stick of sausage on the trail, and I have a hard time cutting it up in equal portions for each day. If there are no single servings available, would dividing a sausage into single servings before the trek be feasible? If so, would you use ziplock bags, plastics wrap, etc.?

I just toss one in a ziploc and eat on it until it's gone. I've taken 2-3 days to finish it off with no problem.

I've seen small packages of sausage at World Market, if you have one in your area.

The sausages on the Minimus site are the same ones World Market sells. Same three flavors as well. At least in my local World Market.

There is a similar store called Cost Plus Imports, and they used to stock tiny turkey sausages. I think they were in a 1-ounce size, and plastic-sealed, of course.

Cost Plus and World Market are one in the same. They have not changed all the CA stores to that name yet. Just a name change

Being the owner of a shiny new Food Saver, I'm wondering if it'd work to cut sections of a grocery store sized summer sausage and vacuum seal them.

(Cut using a reasonably well sterilized knife and cutting board)

OK! Just got back from town….yes, Cost Plus World Market carries the same ones as Minimus and are even cheaper – $1.49. The snausages are 1 3/4 ounces each. They also carry a nice salami that is 3 ounces for $2.99.

Picked up a bunch and will be doing a blog on them this week….
