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.
