Dearborn Sausage Company fresh kielbasa.........mmmmmmmmmmm.

I'd open the basement fridge before the wife cooked it up for Christmas and the smell of garlic would hang on me for 10 minutes!

BTW-I work right next to Hamtramck

I'm lucky enough to be able to get homemade kielbasa at one of the area grocery stores...
Boil, then bake (or cook in a frying pan, or grill) MMmmmm

And, if you want something different, after boiling the kielbasa, cut it into chunks, toss them into a slow cooker with a couple cans of crushed pineapple and a lot of brown sugar. A few hours later, it's incredible.

Golumpki! AKA "Pigs in a Blanket". These are essentially little "meatloaves" made with rice instead of bread crumbs, then wrapped in a steamed cabbage leaf. I then wrap the leaf with a bacon strip, but that's optional. You then bake it in tomato sauce.

This stuff will gas you up like nothing else, but MY GAWD it's good I'm having flashbacks of bushia's house now!

Meatloaves?! There are no bread crumbs in golumpkis! And, the insides are supposed to be nice and juicy, not all dried out. In addition to tomato sauce, there's some tomato paste, as well as crushed whole tomatoes. MMMMmmmm, I just had some leftover ones for dinner last night (they're sooo much better reheated.) Since it's a pita to make just enough for one dinner, we make as large a batch as possible to fit into our biggest roaster... They freeze exceptionally well.

Ahhh, okay. I saw the word meatloaf and my brain stopped functioning! Regardless, the only thing it should have in common with meatloaf is that it has ground beef in it. Meatloaf is much drier than galumpkis.

There is a very very good butcher in a town called Shenandoah, PA that makes an very authentic basa. I believe the name is Kuvalonic's Shop.

I know this was from 16 years ago but this is where my Family always would go for Christmas/Easter Kielbasa. Best in the world! It's called Kowalonek's

I like my Kielbasa like I like my Wieners, Store bought, Double Smoked, and Dry Roasted...

We usually get the Slotkowski sausages. The king might have died 23 years ago, but his legacy lives on.
