Who likes kielbasi? Is it available in the southlands?

[Polishprince]

Here in high tax Pennsylvania, I always wondered about moving to the land of cotton.

But one of the things that stops me is the availability of premium kielbasi in Dixie.

I like a sausage with a nice thick skin that keeps the kielbasi juice. Not like these so called "skinless" kielbasis, but one that packs the garlicy goodness of the delicacy.

Good kielbasi should be made with the finest cuts of pork money can buy, seasoned just right and smoked to perfection.

However, there don't seem to be many Poles in many of those states, do USMB members in the various states of the South have problems with the kielbasi supply, if they are in Knoxville or Chattanooga? Here in Mercer County, it isn't a problemo.

We tested six smoked brands to find the best sausage with a coarse texture, a satisfying "snap," and a meaty, smoky taste.

I like it. It has a couple different accepted spellings.

But I have to say that the taste of the stuff stays with me for 12 hours. Not that that's bad, but...

Well, I can't help you, as I'm in PA myself and don't get down to the south very often. I imagine shipping could work if you have a local supplier willing to ship X pounds of the stuff to you on a monthly subscription or something.

They have it in Texas. I love it.

When I lived in NC it was available there.
Of course they dipped it in cornmeal batter and deep fried it, but it was available.
That was over 35 years ago, so things might have changed.....

I usually prefer mine with horseradish, which seems to hit the spot.

It is difficult to find quality made sausage of any kind here in Florida.
