CROCKPOT SAUSAGE, SAUERKRAUT AND POTATOES

We love this meal and it is so simple in the crockpot.  Sauerkraut and potatoes just seem to go together.  Add some Polish sausage and you have a meal in a pot!  This is real comfort food and my family is all about comfort food.

2 (14 ounce) cans sauerkraut, undrained (or 1 (2 pound) bag)
5 or 6 potatoes, peeled and cut into large chunks
1 cup water
1 pound Polish sausage, cut into chunks (could use smoked sausage)
1 teaspoon caraway seeds
1 bay leaf
1/4 teaspoon pepper
                                                     
Place sauerkraut and potatoes in slow cooker, add spices and water.  Place sausage on top.  Cook 4 hours on high or about 6 hours on low or until potatoes are done.  Makes 6 to 8 serving. Enjoy!

  1. Hi Judy – How does that saying go??? GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE! I have a very similar recipe ready to post at my blog tomorrow!! lol This IS delicious…a new twist on an old recipe for me. I was tickled to see it here and can vouch for the fact that it’s truly delicious! =)

  2. What a wonderful meal. That sausage has my name on it.

  3. Happy Halloween to you and your family, Judy! I love your two new Halloween pics on the top sides, esp that spider, so cute! :D
    This looks really yummy and I guess I’ll have to try this soon! My family loves potatoes so much and could eat it almost everyday! LOL ;P
    What can I use to replace the sauerkraut if I cannot find any here (Singapore)? Is caraway seeds similar cumin seeds and can I use that instead?

  4. Looks so good. Love this.

  5. I’ll be trying this one-yum-and easy too!

  6. I’ve been looking at this recipe since you posted it, and I finally made it today. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? This is the BEST dinner I’ve made in a long time! It was yummy. I added a little salt and garlic powder, it was heavenly! Thank you!

  7. Hi Judy, I cooked this today and it tasted good! My family like it, especially my elder gal! She loves the soft and tender sausages and the sauce. ;)
    Tks for sharing your great recipe! I’ll be trying out other of your recipes in future, :D

  8. I make a very similar recipe but I add a can of beer instead of the water. Yummy!n and of course the alcohol cooks off.

  9. Hi Judy, I Love this recipe, I have made something similar for years. I use Keilbasa, instead of the polish sausage, though either would be good. I also peel and dice 2 Apples, & add 1 T. of Brown Sugar, in place of the water, I use 1 Cup Apple Juice. Our Family Loves this..
