For sausage lovers, Christmas has come early. The fourth annual Christmas Market at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre plaza runs until Dec. 24 and here you’ll find more than 50 booths with authentic German hand-crafted goods and speciality food makers, including North Vancouver’s legendary Black Forest Meats and Sausage Ltd.
The company was started by Jurgen Burkhardt, a German-born master sausage maker who hails from Black Forest, where he made his first sausages (rabbit and duck) when he was just 11.
Burkhardt moved to Canada in the mid-1980s and since then he and his team have become internationally renowned for their sausage and meat products.
