Time 3h20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup butter
1 medium onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced (four if you are a garlic lover)
1/2 teaspoon thyme leaves
1/4 teaspoon ground sage
ground black pepper, to taste
3 potatoes, peeled and diced (try to use a waxy potato like Yukon gold (russets will disintegrate in the baking process)
1 (16 ounce) bag sauerkraut, from the deli aisle (not canned please)
1 lb beef kielbasa, cut into 1/2 inch pieces (two if you're an insane sausage lover)

Steps:

  • Put the cold butter in a cold pan with the diced onion, and slowly bring to a simmer on medium heat.
  • This brings out the sweetness of the onions.
  • Simmer for about 10 minutes.
  • Add minced garlic and simmer 2 more minutes.
  • Add next 3 ingredients.
  • Combine with the sauerkraut (undrained and not rinsed), kielbasa and potatoes.
  • Bring to a simmer on the stove top.
  • Cover loosely with foil and place in a preheated 225°F oven for 3 hours.

CREAMY KIELBASA AND KRAUT



Creamy Kielbasa and Kraut image

This is one of those recipes that tastes better the next day, but is darn good right off the stove. Having spent half my adult life in Germany, I fell in love with anything that had sausage in it. This an awesome "comfort food" type dish. If you love kielbasa and sauerkraut, I think you'll really enjoy this. It goes great with slices of sourdough bread to mop up the juices.

THE ORIGINAL KIELBASA AND SAUERKRAUT



The Original Kielbasa and Sauerkraut image

This is a family recipe passed down from my grandfather and my father who still make every New Year's Day. It's the best. Trust me, you'll love this recipe. It's original and kinda simple. It's 'old school.' Serve with Jewish rye bread, butter, and horseradish. A good side is mashed potatoes with cheese, milk, and butter to create a rich, creamy, tasty mashed potatoes to go with the dish.
