Number Of Ingredients 10

4 can(s) sauerkraut (14.5 oz each)
1 c light brown sugar (or to your taste)
16 oz dr pepper soda (or enough to almost cover kraut)
3 medium apples cored & sliced (i used golden delicious)
3 medium onions, sliced
1/2 stick butter
5 clove garlic, minced
42 oz smoked sausage, (family pac size)
2 tsp caraway seeds (optional) if desired
chopped green onion tops as garnish if desired

  • 2. Add the sliced apples, minced garlic, and sliced onions to skillet and sauté for about 1 -2 minutes.
  • 3. Open sauerkraut and add to a large colander, and rinse, then add to skillet, add caraway seeds if desired.
  • 4. Remove sausage from package and make diagonal cuts into sausages with sharp knife. Add the brown sugar to sauerkraut.
  • 5. Top Kraut with smoked sausage. ADD ENOUGH DR PEPPER TO COME ALMOST TO TOP OF KRAUT. Cover with a lid and bring to a simmer. Then REMOVE LID and lower heat and cook over low heat until most of the liquid evaporates, stirring as needed to prevent sticking. Cooking for about 45 minutes or so.
  • 6. Plate and serve as desired. Add chopped green onion tops over kraut platter as desired just before serving.
