Doesn't this just look like fall? I made this 2day in the crockpot, & it came out great. Love one-pot meals! Flavorful without being heavy. I left the peels on the potatoes & apples. Nice one for working parents or great for football game days! Smells soooooooooo good! Adjust cooking time according to your crockpot & how large you have the veggies chopped. You will have some cinnamon flavor in this, so if you don't like that, omit the cinn stick & add a dash of nutmeg to the sauce instead. Also, I think this would be even better with smoked pork sausage links!

Ingredients

  • 4 - chicken sausage links (i used spinach & feta flavor)

  • 1 - onion, cut in chunks
  • 1 pound fresh green beans
  • 1 - red pepper, cut in large chunks
  • 20 - baby carrots (or 3 whole carrots cut in chunks)
  • 2-3 - apples, cut in large chunks (i used granny smith)
  • 1 - cinnamon stick (optional)
  • 1 cup beer (any kind, i used lite)
  • 2 tablespoons dijon mustard

  • 1 tablespoon chicken stock (i like knorr's homestyle stock)
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

How To Make crockpot chicken sausage harvest

  • Step 1
    Begin to layer the ingredients in your crock pot. I did potatoes first, half the onions, apples, red pepper, carrots, rest of onions, green beans and sausage on top. Put cinnamon stick on top for the essence (optional).
  • Step 2
    Whisk the beer with mustard, montreal chicken seasoning, garlic, chicken stock, and black pepper. Pour over top. I also threw some caraway seeds over top, just because I had them.
  • Step 3
    I cooked for about 4-5 hours on high. Temp time will need to be adjusted according to your crockpot. I didn't want the broth to be thick; if you do, you could add some cornstarch or flour, I'm sure.
