Hardwood-smoked in Hamtramck, Michigan
Polish kielbasa, hunter's sausage and hand-made pierogi, made with the same secret family recipes for four generations.
Since 1920
Agnes and Zygmund Kowalski emigrated from Poland and opened a small grocery on Chene Street in Detroit. They added a smokehouse to bring the flavors of the old country to America, and in 1920 built the factory on Holbrook Avenue in Hamtramck. We still smoke over hardwood chips, and we haven't changed our secret family recipes.
