Breaking News – Christmas Utica NY
Vinny Bulawa is the Polish Santa!

You be the judge.

The Real Twas the Night Before Christmas

Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house,
The fridge was half empty not enough for a mouse.
The plates were set out on the table no fear,
In hopes that Vinny Bulawa soon would be there.

The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of pierogi danced in their heads.
And mama with her forks and I with my knives,
Had just set the table for a nice big surprise.

The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow,
Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below.
When, what to my wondering nostrils should smell,
But pierogi, kapusta and kielbasa as well.

And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof,
The thumping and bumping of each big boot.
As I shook my head, and was turning around,
Down the chimney Vinny came with a bound.

He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot.
A bundle of food he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a peddler, just opening his pack.

He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the plates, then turned with a jerk.
Pierogi, kielbasa, and sledzie of course,
Ham & cheese and not just borscht.

He laid his finger aside his nose,
He gave a nod, and up the chimney he rose!
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away he flew like the down of a thistle.

But I heard him exclaim, ‘ere he drove out of site,

Polish Kiebasa (sausage) has been around for centuries and there are many varities to enjoy. Even today smoked suasages and meats make up over 50% of all meats sold in Poland.

What is in Polish Kielbasa?

Traditionally pork is the main ingredient in Kielbasa, other meats used are beef, veal, ham, and wild game meats like venison; along with garlic, salt, pepper, marjoram, mustard seed, and other spices.

Kielbasa is the general Polish word for sausage and could mean any kind of sausage from any country. When people think of Polish Kielbasa in there minds eye and nose, the are thinking of the dark brown smokey and garlicky Polish Sausage, Polska Kielbasa Wędzona.

Making smoked kielbasa entails cutting the meat into chunks and curing it with nitrites, an essential ingredient to prevent spoilage and harmful bacteria during smoked sausage making. After curing, spices are mixed in and the Kielbasa (sausage) is stuffed into natural hog casing. Then it is cold or hot smoked depending on the type of kielbasa being made.

Take a look at the label on the Kielbasa you buy at the supermarket. Looks like a lot of extra chemicals and things you can’t figure out what they are. If you want the best old world Polish Kielbasa and fresh meats and cold cuts, skip the super market and head down to the Pulaski Meat market, It’s worth the trip.

A Poem inspired by Vincent’s magic!!

Polish Kielbasa

Walking down the street my senses are aroused.
The nose knows!

Stopped in my tracks I pause and turn into the wind.
Yes! I’m on the right track because
The nose knows!

Nostrils flared, tunnel vision points to the door
The nose knows!

My pace quickens I open the door
The nose knows!

Garlic and smoke oh what a smell
The nose knows!

Mouth watering I shout out
Polish Kielbasa I’ll take it all!
The nose knows!
