Polish Sausage Sauerkraut & Potatoes - Crockpot

By Lsweetnell

Smoked Polish sausage with sauerkraut and potatoes in a brown sugar laced sauce is slow cooked to perfection. This is one dish I get lots of request for because of the amazing sweet and savory flavors but I have to admit the best part is how simple it is. Enjoy!

Ingredients

• 2 (14-ounce) cans sauerkraut, undrained
• 6 potatoes, peeled and cut into large chunks
• 1/3 cup brown sugar
• 1 cup water
• 1 pound Polish sausage, cut into chunks
• 1 1/2 teaspoons caraway seeds
• 2 bay leaves
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Place sauerkraut and potatoes in slow cooker, add spices, brown sugar and water. Stir in sausage chunks. Cook 4 hours on high or about 6 hours on low or until potatoes are tender.

Cook's Note:
You can also use pork chops in this recipe. Combine all the ingredients, except the potatoes and chops, then once sauerkraut mixture is made just layer in potatoes and chops.
