My family makes this recipe all the time. It is so delicious. I recommend trying it with the pork kielbasa first because that's how we have always made it. I like to use turkey kielbasa now though because it is a bit healthier.

SWEET ONION KIELBASA
This is a very simple recipe I clipped from the newspaper. I make this with turkey kielbasa to lower the fat content and usually use Newcastle or Sam Adams as the beer. The recipe is intended as an appetizer but I see no reason why you couldn't serve it as a main dish with a side of rice and a veggie.
