Our father, Robert Ilyes Sr., started making our own bologna, hotdogs, smoke sausage, etc.., out of the basement of our original farm house in the early fifties. In the early sixties he started experimenting on making bologna sweetened with honey resulting in a bologna with a unique taste and higher moisture content that didn’t dry out in the smokehouse. By 1965 he broke ground on a new butcher shop which gave him the space to produce our honey sweet bologna at much higher volumes. In 1972 we applied for and receive USDA certification and became USDA Est. 9814. This allowed us to wholesale our bologna to local grocery stores. I remember as a 17 year old kid, one of my first roles was delivery driver and how much it taught me the way around York and Adams counties.
Today our honey sweet bologna is available in most all the Grocery stores in the York, Hanover, Gettysburg, Spring Grove, Dallastown, Red Lion, and Shrewsbury areas as well as at our store in York New Salem. We also ship our honey sweet bologna all over the United States to all the people who grew up on it and now retired elsewhere. Through all the years the recipe has stayed pretty much the same and has been a staple for parties and events in the South Central PA. area especially around the holidays.
