- 1 lb (450g) smoked kielbasa, sliced into ½-inch thick coins
- ½ cup brown sugar (light or dark)
- ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
- Optional:
- 1–2 tbsp Dijon mustard (for depth)
- Pinch of red pepper flakes (for heat)
- 1 tbsp butter (for extra richness)
💡 Pro Tips:
- Use pre-cooked smoked kielbasa—it’s already fully cooked and just needs warming.
- Don’t walk away while glazing—sugar burns quickly!
- Pat kielbasa dry before cooking for better browning.
