Hungarian sausage -Kolbasz.

Came across this some time ago and was intrigued. Having extra time now days it was a good time to give it a go. Followed the instructions on Len Poly's site.spice mix and glass of sweet wine.
And all mixed up ready to stuff. and this always makes me smile check out the fancy pricker lol. Smoked the lot yesterday, gave it a rest in paper bag in the fridge overnight. had to give it a taste since I cut it and it's good,put in 60% sweet and 40% hot paprika so it has a warm finish. Will see what it's like in 2-3 days. Thanks for looking and stay safe.

I made a batch of Kolbasz maybe 15 years back using Poli's recipe before I had my Pro 100 smoker, I remember the wine being hard to find. Turned out the smoker I had at the time had defective controls and sensors, the casings fatted out and I ended up with nothing but a gooey mess. You did a beautiful job on and links and smoke, Like!

Yes to single links. Used hickory for smoke with the famous mailbox mod. One thing I would change would be to double the paprika and add carroway seed. Just because I like the taste.

add carroway seed.

Yup me too . Add it to most of my bratwurst , along with a pinch of ginger .
I need to start hanging in singles , or rings .
