This video has showed up in the comments as a request a few different times. I know know why! It is a very delicious smoked meat. Krakowska is a coarse lean pork sausage with fine ground pork binding the sausage together.
If I were to make this sausage again I may use a plastic or cellulose casing as I ended up loosing more than I'd like to the casing. Especially when it is this good!

Yay! You made Krakowska! (I was told it's pronounced "kra-COFF-ska.") God I love this stuff. When my son was younger we'd visit a local Polish Deli that made some amazing sausages, but it was the Krakowska that was our favorite. We'd get back into the car, slice of big chunks of the stuff, and shove them into our drooling mouths. So good! I made it once using a 2.5" fibrous casing, but next time I'll use a 3" casing like you suggest. Thanks for motivating me to make some more!

Awesome. So happy you make this vid. Have been enjoying this all my life (50+). A couple of things. In Polish, “w” is pronounced as “v” as in violin or violet. Second, at least here in NJ Polish enclaves, it’s usually cut at a diagonal 30-45deg so the slices are long ovals and the diameter is on the small side 2.5 to 3 inch. I’m guessing that’s so it doesn’t fall apart and it’s easy to spot amongst the hams and kielbasa. Just bought the book. Thanks again.

Hey there Whitetailrancher, I am really glad you are liking the videos and they way I make them. I I gotta say though I know Eric from 2 guys and a cooler, he is a really great guy. If you met him in person you'd find he is super kind and very generous. If his style isn't your fav well that is fair enough there has to be something different for everyone. I do want to say thank you again very much for watching though I do really appreciate it!

Put some vinegar in the casing soak water. From what I'm told the vinegar denatures protein so it doesn't stick to the casing. All I know for sure is that it works.

Great layout on your instructions and recipes, easy to follow and I know exactly where to go to get the info I need. Even bought the Marianski book! Lol, it's been a while since i bought a real book! I'm thinking about making this sausage but with a small casing, like the one used for the hunter sausage, any recommendations? Thanks!
