"Hengshui table has two treasures, and white dried sausages cannot be less", which has been in Hengshui for many years.

A jingle is widely circulated among people in this township and neighboring counties. The sausage mentioned here is the giant deer sausage produced in Julu Town, Taocheng District, Hengshui City.

The appearance of Julu sausage is directly related to the strong commercial atmosphere in Julu Town. During the Guangxu period of Qing Dynasty, Julu Town had developed into an important land and water wharf on Fuyang River, where agricultural products from Jixian, Nangong and Xinhe counties were distributed, and goods from Tianjin in the downstream and Handan in the upstream were also transported to the above counties. At that time, many large domestic firms and banks had semicolons in Julu, with as many firms as 18 1. Busy business activities gave birth to Julu's catering service industry. In the late Qing Dynasty, there were more than 20 workshops selling smoked chicken and bacon, and Julu sausage was produced in a smoked chicken workshop called Xiangshunju.

The production of Julu sausage needs more than 20 processes, including nine processes: material selection, smoothing, cutting, sieving, blending, bundling, filling, boiling and smoking, which takes one day to complete, and each process has strict requirements and unique stress. For example, when cooking, put 17 kinds of spices prepared by Chinese medicines and cook them into willow seeds (small mouths); When adjusting sausage stuffing, mung bean balls are the first choice, followed by yam balls; Smoked sausages need willow sawdust, which is smoked into jujube red in winter and golden yellow in summer. Excellent production technology makes Julu sausage have the advantages of crispy skin, tender meat, fragrant but not greasy, and storage resistance, so it has been circulated for a hundred years.
