Directions

  1. 1

    This recipe comes with some chopping, measuring and other prep, but virtually no hands-0n cooking. Just set your 3- or 4-quart slow cooker to low, then add the potatoes, carrots and onions. Next, in a separate bowl, combine the sauerkraut, brown sugar, mustard and caraway seeds, then spoon this mixture over the veggies. Then add the sliced sausage and the broth and let everything cook, still on low and covered, for between eight and nine hours.
