Vanguard will serve you sausages like you’ve never tasted before.
THE VANGUARD / Facebook Sure, we also love good ol’ Johnsonville brats, but Vanguard makes their own scratch-made sausages. All brats and sausage choices come with your choice of onion, sauerkraut, Vanguard’s hot kraut, relish, or peppers.
Their menu is huge and includes everything from classic brats, to cheddarwurst, to vegan sausages for our plant-based friends.
