These are lean and smoky and have a meaty texture, flowing in juicy rivulets as you bite through taut, crunchy skins.

The Locker has a small counter up front, with most of the space devoted to the cutting and processing of meat.

Next door to the old OK Market, the Wahoo Bakery carries packages of Wahoo Wieners, and some very fine doughnuts too.

This is the original source for the Wahoo Wiener, on the National Register For Historic Places.  There's nothing to indicate that it's been closed for years.  If you call their phone number, it rings but the phone is never answered.  Oddly, it hasn't been disconnected.  We did confirm with the local Chamber Of Commerce that the market was really, in fact, closed.
