OPEN SEASONALLY: October - April

We are a second generation family-owned business with MANY years of experience. Ohrt's Smokehouse has been servicing customers for the past 20+ years (founded in 2003). We process wild game and wholesale our retail products to Martin Brothers (Waterloo & Mason City), Theisen's (New Hampton and Charles City) and various Casey's General Store locations, Parkersburg Hardware and Garden Center. See our product page for all locations.
Catering to the hunter is our main objective. We take GREAT pride in producing quality fresh, smoked and retail/wholesale products.
You may see us at various gun and sports shows selling our sausage sticks and jerky. Whatever capacity we can serve you, we look forward to meeting you and hope to exceed your expectations.
Shipping options available for retail and wholesale products, but are limited to sausage sticks and jerkies. See bottom of "Products" page for selection.
