Hey Poles in America - no doubt you have tasted what Americans call Polish sausage. I'm curious - from which type of kielbasa do you think ours was derived? I realize that this might be sacrilege, but I miss the taste of an American Polish sausage and would like to find something close here in Poland.

My best guess is Śląska, but I haven't tried all the varieties here. Any opinions?

seriously? American sausage is discusting. It doesn't taste like Polish kielbasa at all. Good luck finding it here.

Instead of enjoing delicious Polish sausage, you look for this American crap. yuck.

Exactly how is this constructive? I asked a very specific question, and you gave me an answer to a question I didn't ask. If you're not going to stay on topic, then please keep your opinion to yourself.

The American Polish sausage is not bad (grilled, or in bigos). On the other hand, there is a reason why genuine kielbasa from a Polish manufacturer in Chicago costs about 3-4 times more than "Polish Sausage" in grocery stores. Try Wiejska or Śląska or anything that looks appealing :) Also, if you like dry salami, give Krakowska and kabanosy a try.

wiejska, slaska, krakowska and kabanos do not compare to the American crap. it is an insult.

Yet more proof that many Pol-Ams are considered a joke on here. pgtx is right - it's laughable that you would want to find an American-style fake "Polish-style" kielbasa, when the real thing is everywhere you turn. But I imagine that a lot of people would go to Italy and complain that they can't get a "decent" Starbucks-style "coffee"... lol.

Bull crap Tex. America has some of the best Polish Kielbasa around. These recipe's have been brought over by the early Immigrants, and improved upon .. It.s true.. There is some junk around. BUT ! , Chicago

Michigan and the north east have the best. Same goes for our Polish music.. Polish music in Poland SUCKS.

Ok then.. So we both agree to disagree. Shucks you Poles in Europe still use lard to fry paczki and chruschiki.

Mmmm Krakowska....

If you live in the U.S. try andysdeli.net. The quality is exceptional, but the prices may make you faint.

The best pork sausage (wędlina) I ever tried to date, was not in Poland, but at some dive in Greenpoint whose name escapes right now!

Hey Poles in America - no doubt you have tasted what Americans call Polish sausage.

Smoked links are the type I see most often, in the supermarkets. More varied choices can usually be purchased at European deli's.

Dude, MoOli! i'm not talking about hotdogs. Even Polish hotdogs contain crap. Literally.

Beside the OP question was where he can buy some crappy American sausage in Poland. NOT about Polish sausage in the US.

That stuff you buy at a supermarket is basically a big hot dog. Nothing comparable to a real Kielbasa.

No you don't buy polish sausage in a supermarket, always purchased at a Polish Deli. And PGTX don't let those Chicago Polish Deli's get wind of your opinion of their suasage, they wouldn't sell you any! I was raised on the stuff, every Saturday evening, with leftovers during the week, served cold on Augusta rye bread. Sheesh! Man you guys have never lived.
