Without a doubt, Neese's Sausage is one of life's great little pleasures. Never frozen in the store and a bit on the expensive side as far as sausage goes, my family always had Neese's in the icebox as a young kid. Didn't know it at the time, but it was always Neese's.
After moving away from South Central NC as a youngster everytime we visted my grandparents, the unique smell of that sausage cooking up in the morning would kick back a strange, yet comforting memory of a young kid back "home".
A few years ago, that reminesent smell triggered something in the ole memory banks and instantly I was a kid sitting in the farmhouse kitchen listening to the roosters crow, a Dove cooing on the power line, and a Farmall tracter coughing and sputtering in the back field. In reality, I was sitting in the wheelhouse of a black 36' Crowley lobster boat heading to the Big Rock. The mate on this charter offered a sauasge sandwich to the party and I was in heaven. "my God Marty, where did you get this sausage from?"
"Dude, it's just Neese's sausage on BBQ bread. Wipe your hands clean and grab me those sea witches hanging behind you."
I now keep a ready supply of my childhood in the freezer for Sunday morning breakfast.
Marty, thanks for the re-introdution to the best Country sausage to every come from a store.

Neese's is a good substitute for those of you who can't make it to Nahunta.
Neese's scrapple ain't half bad either.

As far as sausage goes, Neese's leaves a lot to be desired in my opinion. When you've grown up on homemade sausage made from hogs you've raised yourself, Neese's just aint up to par. Good sausage can also be found at local meatshops which there are literally hundreds littered across Eastern NC. Neese's is better than most grocery store sausage but definately no match for homemade.
P.S. If you find one with an 80 year old woman in the back making sausage then you know you are in the right place. Also, if they are making sausage the day you go in, don't get the freshly made, ask for some from the last batch because the flavor will be much better.
I'm sure that is good but it could never replace the ultimate food.

Gonna throw an entry in here on my way down to the beach any morning before 11:00 I have to stop at Helens Famous Sausage samich house and get 3, when matey is heading down and ask what I need I say pick me up a couple at Helens. I don't know where she gets the stuff and it is a link sausage but it is to die for.
As far as Purple's thoughts I can go there we use to do 2 home raised hogs every New Years day and Our scrapple and sausage could not be beat, of course we had the luxury of adding meat to both products rather than other stuff![]()
AW MAN, you dont know what livin is till you had a helens sausage samwich.......
We own a cabin about 2 miles from helens, i can remember all my life, opening day deer season we would take off school and go hunitng, the whole family, and then go to Helens and bullshit with all the other guys/kids that had been deer hunting that day. Man good memorys
