This Deliciousness Only Takes 5 Ingredients & 5 Minutes to Toss Together...
Have you ever visited Joe's Crab Shack? Or seen one of there commercials? Ever heard of a "steamer dinner"? Well, this isn't a seafood dinner...it's a smoked sausage dinner :) It's super easy and delicious. But it IS a steamer. A crockpot steamer...
The key to turning your crockpot into a "steamer" is keeping it on high and only adding "X" amount of water. What's "X"? For me that's 1 1/2 cups. I had about 1/3 of a cup of liquid left when it was done. Yours may be different. That makes it a bit difficult to "dump and go" until you know your crockpot personally.
Slow cooker's are fickle creatures sometimes. I have two that are the same size, same age and same brand. The only difference is one is digital and push-button and the other has a dial...they don't cook the same temperatures or the same speed. So a "getting to know you" period is necessary. And once you guys are buddies you can make this meal and know how much broth you'll need.
But 'til then, here's my experience. I'd just recommend making it once when you're tooling around the house for the day before talking off and leaving it alone.

I made the one pot smoked sausage meal. I use 4 potatoes, 2 cups of broth and added corn on the cob. It was awesome
I'm very glad you enjoyed it :)
Thanks for the new ideas! Have been making a version of this for years with just potatoes, onions, and keilbasa, covered completely with seasonings salt and water. I love the idea of adding cabbage and steaming it instead. Gotta try it soon!
You're very welcome :)
This recipe is so easy to mix and match, barbecue or softer flavors what ever the mood!
I'm very glad you like it!
