Kielbasa (/kiːlˈbɑːsə/ or /kɪˈbɑːsə/; from Polish kiełbasa [kʲɛwˈbasa])[a] is any type of meat sausage from Poland, and a staple of Polish cuisine. In American English the word typically refers to a coarse, U-shaped smoked sausage of any kind of meat, which closely resembles the Wiejska sausage (typically pork only) in British English.
