In 1969, the Vaucresson Sausage Company started selling sausages at Jazz Fest. After almost 50 years, the company is one of the festival’s few remaining original vendors. Vaucresson’s hot sausage links are an important part of many local recipes and restaurant menus, and the company is currently redeveloping its longtime home in the 7th Ward, where it has operated for more than a century.
