Provided by SMorrissey

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1/2 cup butter
1 medium onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced (four if you are a garlic lover)
1/2 teaspoon thyme leaves
1/4 teaspoon ground sage
Ground black pepper, to taste
3 potatoes, peeled and diced (try to use a waxy potato like Yukon gold (russets will disintegrate in the baking process)
1 (16 ounce) bag sauerkraut, from the deli aisle (not canned please)
1 pound beef kielbasa, cut into 1/2 inch pieces (two if you're an insane sausage lover)

Steps:

Put the cold butter in a cold pan with the diced onion, and slowly bring to a simmer on medium heat. This brings out the sweetness of the onions. Simmer for about 10 minutes. Add minced garlic and simmer 2 more minutes. Add next 3 ingredients. Combine with the sauerkraut (undrained and not rinsed), kielbasa and potatoes. Bring to a simmer on the stove top. Cover loosely with foil and place in a preheated 225°F oven for 3 hours.

THE ORIGINAL KIELBASA AND SAUERKRAUT

The Original Kielbasa and Sauerkraut image

This is a family recipe passed down from my grandfather and my father who still make every New Year's Day. It's the best. Trust me, you'll love this recipe. It's original and kinda simple. It's 'old school.' Serve with Jewish rye bread, butter, and horseradish. A good side is mashed potatoes with cheese, milk, and butter to create a rich, creamy, tasty mashed potatoes to go with the dish.

KIELBASA AND SAUERKRAUT

Kielbasa gives this dish intense flavor. I like to serve it with wide egg noodles tossed with butter.
