HATFIELD, PA. — Pork processor Clemens Food Group unveiled its Hatfield’s innovative new sausage portfolio.

Items in the Hatfield portfolio include all-natural skinless sausage links and sausage patties, which are both frozen and fully cooked, and savory and aromatic sage flavor.

“We are having much success with the Clemens precooked sausage patty, especially in our larger high-volume units,” said Sam Lazarro, executive chef from the Carilion Group. “The patty has great biscuit/plate coverage with almost no shrinkage when reheated, and the sage flavor profile has been very pleasing to our customers. The quick cook time is a plus for our back-of-the-house staff, which has led to consistent-looking and tasting products for our kitchens, which is the biggest plus for me as an executive chef striving for uniform kitchen results in 10 locations.”

Some simple dishes in the sausage portfolio include shakshuka, breakfast poutines and sandwiches.

The company plans to meet the Gold Standard of Animal Care to ensure higher welfare standards for farm animals, promote humane treatment and address growing consumer demand for responsibly sourced food.

Clemens added that these products work for consistent quality and ease of preparation, making them ideal for busy foodservice operations across various settings such as family dining, midscale restaurants, fast-casual chains, healthcare cafes, colleges, universities and lodging facilities. 

“As a chef, I’m always looking for products that not only meet the highest standards of quality but also inspire creativity in the kitchen,” said Jen Moyer Murphy, corporate executive chef at Clemens Food Group. “Hatfield’s new sage-infused sausages do just that. They’re versatile, flavorful, and crafted with care, making them a perfect addition to any menu. Our commitment to ethical sourcing and sustainability ensures that we’re providing the best possible product to our customers.”

Founded in Hatfield, Clemens Food Group is a sixth-generation, family-owned business. The company operates a network of more than 25 farms throughout Indiana, North Carolina and Pennsylvania with more than 5,000 employees.
