just like any sausage i think Kielbasa is the kind of thing that one should just eat and never see stuffed into casings. i prefer to think that it grows on a kielbasa tree and that polacks everywhere just go out and harvest it... : ) i have never had homemade, only Brztinsky's from Leechburg, PA.
It's CHRISTMAS fer cripes sakes...
I WANT Chrusciki and Kolachkes, dagnubit.
