    Our pickles are barrel cured, not heat treated, and need to be kept refrigerated for crunchiness and shelf life.

    Half sours, the New York style pickles, are a lacto-fermented product.

    Just to clarify, are these the whole dill pickles in sizes from baby to XL that the website says are sold in 2- and 5-gal containers? Are they sold in jars in any grocery stores or only in the larger containers at the factory store?

    Due to the unfortunate spread of the Coronavirus in the United States, Vienna Beef is offering a conference call version of the class for our April and May sessions covering the majority of the topics that are covered in the usual 2-day class. We are also discounting this class to $299 in comparison to our original $699 price. Thanks and stay safe! The Vienna Beef /Hot Dog University Team

    Those enrolling in the teleconference course may take the second day of class(Behind-the Cart Training) at the Vienna Beef campus in Chicago without any charge when regular classes resume in the future.

    The Vienna Beef Factory Store & Cafe' on Damen will be closing on July 3rd.

    Throughout the years, we've loved seeing you all visit and take pictures at our Factory Store & Café on Damen. While we're excited for the future, we're sad to announce that July 3rd will be its last day of business. It truly is the end of an era. To celebrate the years of fun, the Factory Store & Café will be hosting a 4th of July sale from 6/24-7/3. Stop by during those days to help us go out with a bang!
