Crock Pot Sausage, Potatoes, and Green Beans

Crock Pot Sausage, Potatoes, and Green Beans makes an easy one-pot southern dinner.

A few strips of bacon are added for some smoky flavor. Serve with a side of cornbread for a delicious southern meal.

Simple Ingredients

• Red or Yukon Gold Potatoes– cut in halves or quarters if not really small.
• Fresh Green Beans– canned can be used instead.
• Chicken Broth– adds lots of flavor. Use low-sodium if you need to watch salt intake.
• Seasoned Salt– Adds so much more flavor than regular salt. I use Lawry’s Seasoned Salt.
• Pepper
• Smoked Sausage
• Butter– added at the end for a buttery finish.

What Type Of Sausage To Use

My favorite sausage to use is kielbasa but you can use any type of smoked sausage.

Quick Prep Time

This is just a chop and dump recipe. No need to pre-cook anything. Just add all the ingredients to the slow cooker and turn it on.

Equipment Needed

A 6-quart or larger slow cooker.

How Long To Cook Crock Pot Sausage, Potatoes, and Green Beans

The potatoes take the longest to cook. They should take 4 to 5 hours on HIGH or 7 to 8 hours on LOW to get soft.

How To Make Spicy

To make this dish spicy, add 1/2 teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes to the slow cooker. You can also serve with hot sauce.

Variations

• Add 1 medium diced sweet onion.
• Canned green beans can be used instead of fresh.
• You can double the amount of smoked sausage for a meatier meal.
• The bacon is added for flavor but can be left out.

Storage

Leftovers will keep for 4 to 5 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator and can be reheated in a microwave.
