Re: I am always up for suggestions, what are your favorite brands?....
My point was not that I had a better alternative; merely that I myself wouldn't refer to this brand as "the best smoked sausages I have ever eaten". I think one thing I didn't care for was the huge size of the Kiolbassa brand links; though I realize some would strongly disagree with that perspective.
Truth be known, I couldn't tell you what represents "the best I've ever eaten". I think it's probably because I myself honestly prefer kolbassi to smoked sausage; though "true" kolbassi (as least as I think of it) really isn't available in my area. Plus, these days, I'm far more likely to grill metts (which obviously aren't terribly dissimilar) than smoked sausage. Maybe I'm just not all that particular anymore.
I also personally tend to avoid these "best" kinds-of blanket claims....both because my memory no longer allows me to remember what's "best" anymore, but also because what's best to me anymore tends to be what's in front of me at the time
