Okay, so I said that I stopped buying pork sausages in favor of Harris Teeter's chicken links. But I lied just a little bit.I experimented recently with half-smokes from Laurel Meat Market because, well, it seems like the local thing to do.
They're lightly spicy. Firmer than the chicken sausage, and we ate them in sandwiches.

While not in the same "quality" ballpark as half-smokes you mention, I've recently discovered that Giant is carrying two brands of Baltimore-made half-smokes in its meat section.
At $2.99 for 6 (pre-cooked) half-smokes (mild or hot), it's a good deal. The two brands (whose names escape me) both exhibit good "snap" when bitten into, a firm and robust texture, and more importantly, great flavour.
While not as good as the half-smokes at Ben's Chilli Bowl in DC, these are a reasonably-good alternative.
I've been zapping them in the microwave for 60 secs and have found them to be the perfect snack.
I'd be curious to see how these stack up to the half-smokes at BBQ Dave's.
Boarman's has the same half smokes as Ben's Chili Bowl, and Treuth's sells great half smokes too.
Laurel Meat Market meats are grass-fed, no hormone, no antibiotic--if that makes a difference to the buyer.
@ Marco - if you figure out the brand of half-smokes that Giant carries, please post here. I looked at my local Giant today in two sections of the store (hot dog section and pork/sausage section) and did not see any half-smokes. I'd like to try them if I can find them.
Giant has T.O Williams Capital half smokes. I brought them yesterday.
Jaint back days sold 5 pack half smoke and they where delicious,but they stop selling them like turkey croquetteswith gravy, andfrozen glazia ice crean , and chocolate macadamia brittle ice cream they stop that too they need bring it all back,it was sold alot i know i'm not only one miss these food prodects
