Hillshire Farm Beef Smoked Sausage and Polska Kielbasa can be prepared in many ways from Gumbo to kebabs! A variety of recipes are available for your consideration, including:
· Sausage Jambalaya
· Italian Style Smoked Sausage with Rice
· Barbeque Smoked Sausage Pizza
· Tortilla Chip Lasagna
· Smoked Sausage Fried Rice
The company was founded in 1934 and was purchased by Sara Lee in 1971. Friedrich (Fritz) Bernegger, born in Austria pioneered the business at the facility in New London, Wisconsin.
Hillshire Farm's primary product is smoked sausage and Polska Kielbasa. The brand introduced smoked sausages to much of the general population of the US as a supermarket food and a nationally advertised food. Hillshire Farm sausages are about 2 feet long and horseshoe shaped (A common smoked sausage format, the shape coming from the sausage being draped over a pole or line for smoking). Currently Hillshire Farm offers 10 varieties of these sausages. They may be cooked whole or sliced and may be cooked almost any way.
My Take on the Products
We tried out both of these products and loved them, they tasted great and even the kids ate them and wanted more! I was impressed by the number of recipes on the Hillshire Farm website which allowed me to be able to know that I could try out these and other Hillshire Farm products in numerous ways.
If you like meat and especially sausage or Kielbasa, Hillshire Farms products are great quality and as I mentioned, taste great, I give them two thumbs up!
