Homemade Polish Kielbasa
rec.food.recipes/Dennis Danich (1997)
My polish mother-in-law and I make it this way

10 lbs. ground pork butt
2 lbs. ground beef
6 Tbsp coarse salt
2 Tbsp sugar
2 Tbsp coarse black pepper
1 Tbsp nutmeg
6 buds garlic, minced

I use all rounded spoonfuls

I use about a quart of ice cold water when I mix, add to dissolve salt and sugar and to make the meat loose enough to stuff the casings. Do not let meat get warm or use warm water. Keep everything cold.
