Leonard's Superior Small Goods is a smallgoods maker in East Tāmaki, Auckland, at 46 Greenmount Drive, where sausages, bacon, deli meats and smoked hams are made. Its best-known product is the manuka-smoked Christmas ham, and the business also sells a ham steak, roast beef and European-style deli meats. The sausages are made with prime pork to family recipes, and the company says it uses no MSG or fillers. There is a gluten-free range. The company dates from 1989, and says it has won awards over many years.
The Factory Shop is open for buyers who want to choose their meat in person, and orders can also be placed by phone or online. Customers praise the black pudding, and one says it matches the British version and lifts a cooked breakfast. Another, who bought the black pudding for breakfast, found it very processed and not traditional, and was disappointed. Regular deli customers say they switched to Leonard's when another deli raised its prices, and have not gone back. The business has no nearby comparison in this listing. For a fry-up or a Christmas ham from a long-established smallgoods maker in Auckland, it is a good place to start.
