The next course in the Gourmet Club main course was beer marinated kielbasa with a homemade Dijon dipping sauce.

The kielbasa was great. The Dijon sauce was not like the stuff you purchase in the store. It was both sweet and tangy.

The kielbasa was purchased (not made) but I marinated it in some amber beer for eight hours.

The Dijon needs to be made weeks in advance. I ended up making a batch about ten weeks prior to the Gourmet Club.

The original recipe did not include the mustard seed, but I decided to add some.

Giving it the grind.

I decided to leave a variety of textures as I find that interesting to the palate.
