SAUERKRAUT AND SAUSAGE - CROCK POT



Sauerkraut and Sausage - Crock Pot image

I've made a few changes from the way mom made this... I remember coming home from school & smelling the sauerkraut cooking. My brother and I would get more excited about the kraut than if we came home to find fresh baked cookies! Just thinking about it makes my mouth water. The best thing about this is that it keeps pretty well & is always better the 2nd day.

  • Use good quality sauerkraut: Not all sauerkraut is created equal. Look for sauerkraut that is made with fresh cabbage and has a slightly sour flavor. Avoid sauerkraut that is canned or has a lot of preservatives.

  • Cook on low: The best way to cook sauerkraut and sausage in the crock pot is on low heat. This will allow the flavors to meld and the sausage to cook through without drying out.
