What are the top 10 locally made North Dakota products that you should try during your next visit to Minot? The Hyatt House Minot asked the experts at Home Sweet Home to weigh in on their top-selling local items. Here's what you can't miss;
1. North Prairie Bison Summer Sausage hails from
Leeds, ND. Sue Ann Sexhus delivers the best Bison sausage around from her Bison
ranch. What an awesome way to celebrate North Dakota heritage!
2. Mable’s Taste of Home is made by Mable Singer
out of Fargo. She is in her early 70’s and still as passionate about
field-to-table food. Mable hand-picks most of her fruit and delivers a
time-tested Wild Chokecherry jelly that’s just like grandma made. What’s better
than biscuits & chokecherry jelly?
3. Dot’s Homestyle Pretzels from Dorothy Henke in
Velva, ND. She started making them for parties and everyone loved them so much
that she had to make them in bigger and bigger batches! Now, Dot’s has expanded
their ND facility. Her pretzels are a North Dakota staple and pair excellent
with mustard.
4. Sharon Schwan’s American Honey Company out of
Hettinger, ND expanded their business to include raw honey when our North
Dakota population shifted and demand increased for healthier honey. Home Sweet
Home encouraged Sharon to sell fresh/raw honey due to its increased
health-benefits, unparalleled flavor, and unlimited shelf-life. Now, it’s flying off the shelves! This honey
is shipped all around the country right from Minot, North Dakota. Make sure you
stop in and buy some while you are visiting Minot.
5. Looking for a unique keepsake? Andy Knutson is a
North Dakota artist who has a studio on Lake Sakakawea. He paints on feathers,
birch, leaves, well… just about anything. His work is proudly displayed at Home
Sweet Home. This artist has an eye for beauty. Make sure to stop in and check
out his work.
6. Jack’s Sauce -We’ve got some saucy goodness
coming from Jack’s Steakhouse in Bismarck. Put it on chicken, seafood, veggies…
or really… anything! Home Sweet Home stocks this North Dakota product, but shop
soon and stock up because it’s a HOT item.
7. Mojo Roast by Jo Kahlifa out of Westhope, ND is
the master coffee roaster behind the Bakken Sunrise coffee at Home Sweet Home.
She only sources 5% of the best coffee beans from all over the world. Jo told
us a story about how she purchased an oven for one of her coffee farmers. The
woman was so grateful; she took a picture of herself beaming in front of her
new oven on the dirt floor of her home. For the freshest cup of coffee, stop in
for Bakken Sunrise coffee.
8. June Berry Topping is made by Pride Dairy out of
Bottineau, ND. Home Sweet Home is proud to bring Jeff Beyer’s product to your
French toast. June berry is a wild North Dakota berry that is only available in
this region. Make sure you stop in to snap up this delicious treat!
9. Cindy’s Track Crackers - Cindy Lewis was a professional
cook who worked in the Nascar circuit. When Linda and Allan at Home Sweet Home
tasted them, they knew these crackers were the beginning of something special.
They helped standardize the recipe and worked with Kalix to bake these
deliciously spicy treats. Once you start, you can’t stop- try them on chili, as
a substitute for croutons, or for your late-night snack.
10. Pie
Candles- Marilee Beavers is a horse woman from a farm in Max, ND who works as a
heavy equipment operator at Minot Air Force Base. Her amazing pie-candles look
delicious enough to eat and smell up an entire room with their baked-goods fake
out scent. These come as a slice, tart size (pictured), or full size at Home
Sweet Home. What a perfect gift for candle or pie lovers.
