We really like it too, and I'm quite sure it's all been pre-cooked, as
never seen any that isn't. I most always buy the Hillshire Farms brand
of Beef Kielbasa. We really like it in spaghetti sauce, and I cut it in
chunks and bring it to a boil on the stove to get out some of the fat,
then drain and add to the sauce. It adds a wonderful flavor, and also to
any homemade soup.

Another way we like it is to make a skillet meal with chunks of
Kielbasa, spuds, peppers, etc. Anything can be added to it, and always
comes out good and is filling and satisfying.
