The exceptional quality of meat products produced by Crescent Meats & Catering LLC was recognized at the 69th annual convention of the Wisconsin Association of Meat Processors, held in Madison on April 11th and 13th.

At the Meat Product Show, held in conjunction with the convention, Crescent Meats received the following product awards: Ring Bologna won Reserve Grand Champion in the Coarse Ground Ring Bologna class, Smoked Chicken won Reserve Champion in the Cured and Smoked Chicken class, Bologna won Reserve Champion in the Large Diameter Luncheon Meat class, and Black Olive and Mozzarella won Reserve Champion in the Small Diameter Smoked and Cured Sausage class.

The Wisconsin Meat Product Competition is the largest of its kind in the United States.  Meat processing plants and meat markets from throughout the state this year entered 928 individual products into 35 product categories, including summer sausage, bratwurst, ham, bacon, smoked poultry and a variety of other types of meat products.  Over 40 judges, including food scientists, out-of-state meat processors, and other food industry professionals were required to effectively evaluate the many products during the product evaluation session on Saturday, April 12th.  Individual products are scored for external appearance and eye appeal, internal appearance, aroma, and taste, using a scale of 1,000 points.

The size of this product show and the quality of its entries, demonstrates the important role that sausage and processed meats play in Wisconsin’s meat industry and among consumers across the state.
