Simple recipe, I've posted it on here before. I used more garlic this time for my liking.


Mixed and into the frig overnight.


Stuffed into Hog casings.


Smoked these with apple this time.


Blooming after a poach bath followed by an ice bath. I couldn't take this all the way in the smoker, the fan mod carped the bed and it tripped the GFI.

Money shot. Nice flavor with a plenty of garlic.


Now onto the periogies.

Looks delicious!  For years and years we sold fresh polska kielbasa from Gianelli Sausage Co. the week before Easter, never imagining that some day I'd be making it myself!   Great job and hope you get your fan fixed!

Thanks Pops. When I was a kid, Easter was all about sitting through church anxiously waiting to go to my Grandparent's house in Clifton, NJ for a homemade Polish dinner. His periogies were out of this world too. I do this for my family now, it's a very special day for me.

Fan is fixed too.
