"I think a lot of people who live around here really just look past us. "I’ve heard people time and time again as they’re walking through the market say things like: ‘Oh, I’ve never even noticed that …’," he says. Just pick out what you like and it will be heated and served to you right at the bar.Ĭasey, who also owns Puddler’s Hall in Bay View, says the bar is truly a place that people miss, even if they’ve been to the market on multiple occasions. Of course, anything in the prepared food cases is also fair game. There are also shareable charcuterie and cheese boards, including the Wurst Platter featuring three housemade sausages, grilled, sliced and served with a selection of cheeses, bread and pickles.

You can get any one of those sausages nestled in a pretzel bun with your choice of toppings (sauteed peppers and onions or sauerkraut) on its own or with a side of lard-fried frites. "And – even if you like heat – it will make you cry a little bit." There’s also a fantastic lamb curry sausage (pictured) and Ryan’s personal favorite, the peach habanero sausage. Among them are ten types of bratwurst in flavors like bacon beer cheddar and Casey’s favorite, jalapeno pepper jack. Speaking of those sausages, Ryan typically stocks a rotating selection of housemade sausages, each made with his own unique spice blends.

When the Nehring’s decided to give up their lease on the space, Ryan and Casey made the decision to bring one of their own dreams to fruition. Ryan is an experienced butcher who spent a good portion of the last two decades working for the Nehring family, most recently as manager of their Nehring’s Family Market stall in the Public Market. And it aspires to be the best – and wurst – of Milwaukee, all rolled into one.
