Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds kielbasa sausage
- 1 cup barbecue sauce
- 1 cup grape jelly
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for spice)
Instructions
Slice the kielbasa sausages into 1/2-inch thick rounds and place them in the crock pot.
In a medium bowl, combine the barbecue sauce, grape jelly, garlic powder, onion powder, and red pepper flakes (if using). Mix well to create a smooth sauce.
Pour the sauce mixture over the sliced kielbasa in the crock pot, ensuring that all the pieces are evenly coated.
Set the crock pot to low heat and cook for 3 hours, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking and to evenly distribute the sauce.
After 3 hours, check that the kielbasa is heated through and coated in the flavorful sauce. Give it a final stir before serving.
Serve the kielbasa hot as an appetizer using toothpicks or over rice or mashed potatoes as a main dish. Enjoy!
