Crockpot Cabbage & Sausage
Crockpot cabbage and sausage is a budget-friendly dish that's packed with tons of flavor! It's an ideal addition to any weeknight dinner and requires minimal effort to prepare. With just a few simple ingredients, you can easily whip up this delicious meal in your slow cooker - comfort food at its best!
Equipment
- Slow Cooker
- Chef's Knife + Pairing Knife
Ingredients
- 1 head cabbage (sliced)
- 1 onion (sliced, large)
- 12 ounces kielbasa (sliced)
- 2 cups chicken broth (or vegetable)
Instructions
- Add the cabbage, onion, and kielbasa to the slow cooker. Toss lightly to combine.
- Add the broth.
- Cover with the lid and cook on low for 2-3 hours, Stirring occasionally.
Notes
- Add basic seasonings at the beginning, but reserve fresh herbs or finishing spices until the last 30 minutes of cooking for brightest flavor.
- Let the dish rest with the lid off for about 10 minutes before serving. This allows flavors to settle and excess moisture to evaporate for the perfect texture.
- While kielbasa works beautifully, don't be afraid to experiment with smoked sausage, andouille, or even Italian sausage for different flavor profiles! Each brings its own unique character to this humble dish.
- If you prefer a less soupy final dish, use only 1½ cups of broth initially. You can always add the remaining ½ cup later if needed. This gives you more control over the final consistency of your cabbage and sausage.
