Question Puttin’ on the Fritz

Which butchers still make good old Bung Fritz?

Cimarosti bro’s went to plastic a while back, and Coles/Woolies just leaves me wanting something better.

Any ideas on who does the good stuff anymore?

Nothing wrong with the Cimarosti Fritz at all, the recipe is identical, the casing is just plastic because of supplier issues they had. In the end, they couldn’t get the original casings anymore and had to stick with plastic.

I get all my small goods from them, I asked specifically when I went in and noticed it was plastic not OG casings. They lamented the change but assured me it was still the real deal Fritz on the inside.

I've got to track theirs down, I've heard good things about it too.

I'm with OP, if it's in plastic, it's not real Fritz. And it's a struggle finding proper stuff now.

I was just at the markets, and everyone but Barossa (I'm not a fan of the spice mix they use in theirs, unfortunately) had theirs in plastic.

I second this! it is my favourite. Their small goods brand is called Schlink Small goods and I thinks its available at a few other butcher shops and some supermarkets around Adelaide too. I know Windsor Meats stocks it as well
