This page exists because these joins exist. A class name that joins to no register entry, no standard, no composition row and no buying guide would not have a page.
US standard of identity
No section of 9 CFR part 319 defines this product. That is worth knowing: it means the name carries no compositional guarantee in the United States, and two products sold under it may have been made quite differently.

Buying it
A dry spiced sausage found from the Balkans through Turkey and the Caucasus, usually beef, usually flattened, and heavily seasoned with cumin and garlic. Transliteration is the practical problem: sujuk, soudjouk, sucuk and soutzouki are the same word.
What to read on the label. Spelled several ways. Some versions are sold to be cooked rather than eaten as they are.
Worth repeating in a buying context: no section of 9 CFR part 319 defines this product, so in the United States the word on the front of the pack is a marketing term. The compositional statements that are regulated are the ones on the back, in the ingredient list and the nutrition panel.
This is not a protected designation. The listing below is a product of this type, not a registered name. The register entries for this class are listed above and none of them is what is linked here.
