Kielbasa and Cabbage
I am back with another slow cooker meal, and this is one of our favorite Kielbasa Recipes! Even though it’s not even Fall yet, I’ve been loving my slow cooker this Summer! It’s been a life safer to have a delicious dinner ready when time management isn’t on my side!
With a beautiful cabbage picked from the garden, I was contemplating what I should do with it. At first I thought of making Ham and Cabbage Soup or Creamy Cabbage Casserole but then I had other ideas! Recently we’ve been loving Slow Cooker Green Beans, so I decided to throw the cabbage to in the slow cooker too! Boom – this Slow Cooker Kielbasa and Cabbage dish was created!

Crockpot Cabbage
Besides cabbage, throw in potatoes and onions to your slow cooker, alongside some beef kielbasa. I’ve made this kielbasa and cabbage slow cooker recipe a few times in the last month and we love adding carrots in it too! The ingredients are incredibly simple, you might already have everything in your kitchen!

Nice twist on haluski. I also added a small apple & a bit of caraway seed, just because. I forgot to boil the noodles, so we skipped them. So yummy we all had seconds & thirds 🙂
Megan says
I love cooking this! Do you have any advice for cooking it quicker over stove top?
Pamela says
Thank you! I haven’t made this exact recipe on the stove top, but perhaps you’d like this one (https://brooklynfarmgirl.com/kielbasa-and-brussels-sprouts-skillet/) – just replace the brussels sprouts with cabbage! 🙂
Vicki Marchino says
Can I use something in place of kielbasa?
Pamela says
Really any type of sausage or bratwursts would work!
Jennifer Thorpe says
Delicious! Cooked it while I slept and couldn’t wait til lunch to try it. Ended up eating for breakfast!
Pamela says
This honestly made my day! Thanks for commenting, I’m so happy you liked the recipe!

Why the brown sugar
Emily Williams says
Does it need to be cooked on low or could it be cooked on high for 4 hours?
Pamela says
Hey Emily, I would cook on high for around 3-3.5 hours. That should be enough time to soften the cabbage and potatoes. Enjoy the recipe!
Gail says
Why would you serve a dish containing potatoes over noodles?
Pamela says
Because my family loves it that way. 🙂 If it’s not what you prefer, then skip the egg noodles.
Meg says
I make this recipe at least once a week. It is a staple in our household. I love how I can just turn the crockpot on low and leave the house and it is ready when I come home. We add a little sour cream as dipping sauce
