SMOKED SAUSAGE AND SAUERKRAUT CASSEROLE



Smoked Sausage and Sauerkraut Casserole image

A hearty and easy supper entree. I need to say up front that this one is a spin-off of Mareesme's: Recipe #199769 -- but I didn't have the proper ingredients for that fine recipe so I changed to smoked sausage and I eliminated the stovetop techniques, so it's all just baking/broiling. Hey, this was GOOD and I credit Mareesme for turning me on to the basic ingredients and some shrewd seasoning with the little touch of brown sugar. If you like weenies and sauerkraut, you like this one even better! pat, the old bone man.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h40m

Yield 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb smoked sausage
6 slices bacon
32 ounces sauerkraut, drained, not rinsed
1/2 medium onion, diced
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1/4 cup water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350-degrees F.
  • Cut the smoked sausage into 6 pieces.
  • In a 9" x 9" ungreased baking dish, layer in half the sauerkraut and then lay out the sausage on top of it. Cover with the remaining sauerkraut.
  • Spread the diced onion over the sauerkraut, lay out the bacon slices across the casserole, and then sprinkle the brown sugar over it. Pour the water over the casserole which will make the sugar dissolve a bit. Cover with aluminum foil and bake on the middle rack for 90 minutes.
  • At the end of the 90 minutes, remove the aluminum foil and, on the same rack, BROIL for 6 minutes. Serve hot along with mashed potatoes.
  • Note: You won't have to add salt -- there's plenty of salt in the sauerkraut.
