For reference in Orange County, CA:

Polka Deli, Orange - http://www.polkadeli.com/
Moscow Deli, Costa Mesa - http://www.moscowdeli.com
Globe European Deli, Costa Mesa - http://www.globedeli.com
Mattern Sausage & Meats, Orange - Old school with no website.

The last is actually German, and is the motherload. They've got more
vursts and sausages it's just mind-boggling. They also supply almost
all the sausages and meats to restaurants all over the county.
