Description
Located in Cedar, Michigan, in the heart of beautiful Leelanau County, Pleva’s Meats has been making old-fashioned meats since 1946. Ray Pleva, a native of Cedar, Michigan, grew up in the midst of cherry farming and sausage making. In 1970 he teamed up with his brother Andy to run Pleva’s Meats and continued making premium sausages by using high quality meats mixed with specially blended seasoning. The sausages are then smoked with hard maple wood for an old-fashioned flavor and taste.
The most popular of the products is Plevalean, fondly referred to as the "Cherry Burger". Patented in 1995, Plevalean burgers have found their way into school lunches in 17 states as well as many restaurants and other institutional settings.
Ray’s story has lured over 40 television crews to the Cedar store including two from CNN. He has even shared the stage with Oprah and appeared on Tim Allen’s Home Improvement. The show Extra! featured his story twice.
