Meat, wrapped in meat, slathered in sugar! aka: Brown Sugar Kielbasa with Baked Potato


That's how a friend described this meal when she saw it.  Pretty accurate and ooooooh so very yummy.

Baked Potatoes (Wash/scrub potatoes.  Wrap individually in aluminum foil.  Put in 350 degree oven before you start the kielbasa/bacon.  Potatoes need at least an hour in the oven.)

Now for the Kielbasa. . .
 
1 (16 ounce) package kielbasa (we like turkey kielbasa, less grease)
1 pound bacon (pork or turkey--depends on your tolerance for grease)
1 cup brown sugar, or to taste

Cut bacon into halves and wrap each strip around the kielbasa. I prefer to use a toothpick to hold it in place.  But some would say I'm kind of OCD about things like that.

Arrange on a baking sheet and sprinkle liberally with brown sugar.

Bake until bacon is crisp and the brown sugar melted, about 30-40 minutes.

Obviously you could do cheesy potatoes with this but I like baked potatoes to balance out the fat and sugar of the kielbasa.
