OFallon Mo.
I saw this on an episode of Triple D and knew I had to try it .
Place was in Philly . Called Gaul & Company Malt house .
Kielbasa loaf that gets sliced and cooked on a flattop like a cheese steak .

Just happened to be a sausage making day , and I was talking with Jeff about the Dutch loaf he made . Got me thinking it would be a good time to do this sandwich .
I used the Hot smoked Polish from Marianski .
Called for 1 clove of chopped garlic . I used 4 .
Also added some potato starch .

Used a loaf pan , but I make a sling so I can lift the loaf out after it sets . This was good enough , I took it out and smoked it without the pan .
I start on a piece of foil , then pull that out later in the smoke .
After sitting in the fridge overnight .

This is how it went into the smoker .
20231214_080810.jpg
Used B&B pellets , and some 100% cherry pellets for color .
Started at 110 to dry .
Steps to 120 and start smoke .
Steps to 140
steps to 165 for the ride .
Took about 9 1/2 hours to hit 150 .
Out and cooling .
20231214_184820.jpg
Fridge overnight .
Couple slices in the morning . The smell is amazing .

2 eggs , Kielbasa and cheese sandwich for breakfast .
20231215_071758.jpg
OK , Lunchtime . Sliced a half pound .
It was a half pound before I took a slice or 2 .

Cut up some onion , and took it out to the Blackstone . Started out stacked
up .
20231215_111734.jpg
Flipped it over and chopped it up .
20231215_111936.jpg
Then mixed with the onions . You can see the edges of the meat are crisp .
20231215_112103.jpg
Hollow out some bread , and add some store bought cheese .
20231215_113013.jpg
Good Lord . Seriously good . Not because I made it , because it's seriously
good . Insane flavor of the loaf cooked like this . I may never stuff Kielbasa again .
20231215_113044.jpg
The possibilities are endless with this . You could season up any profile of
loaf you want . Then cook as a cheese steak . I think the next one will be
sweet Italian with peppers and onions .

Thanks for lookin'

No reason why you couldn't . I've done them start to finish poached on the stove , and start to finish in the SV . I like the poach on the stove better myself .
 
Great looking eats Rich! It all looks like a winner to me... I'm not sure winter is gonna be long enough for my out of control to do list!

Triple D is going to be the death of me............ It's sad when Friday night's viewing pleasure costs so much money
 
Hello my name is David, I am also a Triple D junkie.

That right there Rich is a fantastic idea. And love both meals.
Also love the classic fast food plating , And another great reason for a flattop, :emoji_anguished::emoji_anguished:

I binge watch Triple D every chance I get. And lots of great ideas on there .

David

Man that looks great. I need to look into doing this.
Thanks . It's a great way to do it . I've been keep unseasoned grind in 2 1/2 pound batches in the freezer . That way if I thaw mix and make a loaf there's no equipment to clean .
Great looking eats Rich! It all looks like a winner to me... I'm not sure winter is gonna be long enough
Heck Ryan ,,, if winter ever gets here . It was 62 yesterday .
Thanks for the comment .
