Sausage and Beans In Slow Cooker 4 Ing. When life got to be very hard my aunt used this 4 ingredient staple and it is truly so good. You will not think how quick the family drains thei.

Servings: 6

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2-2 pounds sausage or sausage (kielbasa) smoked, sliced in 1/2-inch rounds.

  • 15 oz (drained and rinsed) red kidney beans, two cans.

  • 1 huge yellow onion, sliced fine

  • 1 large lemon, sliced fine

  • 1 can (10.5-ounce) condensed beef broth or beef gravy-type soup.

Sausage and Beans: Directions

  1. Cut the smoked sausage into onion thinly sliced half-inch thick rounds.

  2. Conditional, but advisable: In a large skillet on medium-high heat, dry-roast the sausage pieces (sliced) 3 to 4 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are lightly browned on both sides. This step is optional and provides an extra flavor plus color but can be omitted in the event you are in a hurry.

  3. Place the chopped onions inside the top of a 4- or 6-quart slow cooker and evenly spread.

  4. Add the sliced browned (or not browned) sausage to the top of the onions in the slow cooker.

  5. Top the sausage with the emptied and rinsed red kidney beans.

  6. Add the condensed beef broth (or beef gravy-like soup) in an even layer to all the contents of the slow cooker. No additional water should be added, you want a thick and hearty gravy.

  7. Stir gently enough to make sure that some of the onions go down between the sausage and beans, but there is no need to be too concerned about mixing the ingredients evenly, they will settle as they cook.

  8. Bake on LOW 6 to 8 or on HIGH 3 to 4 hours or until the onions are extremely soft and the beans are plump and hot and the mixture is thick to a rich brown gravy.

  9. Stir everything well, taste, and add salt and black pepper to season (you typically do not need a lot of seasoning, the sausage and broth are usually salty).

  10. Ready to eat, direct out of the slow cooker, and be sure each dish is full of sausage, beans, onions, and gravy.
