Kielbasa and Cabbage

I’m back with another comforting slow cooker meal, and this Slow Cooker Kielbasa and Cabbage is quickly becoming one of our favorite kielbasa recipes! Even though it’s not quite fall yet, I’ve been leaning on my slow cooker all summer—it’s a lifesaver for getting a delicious dinner on the table when time isn’t on my side. Need dinner even faster? Don’t miss my Instant Pot Kielbasa and Cabbage recipe!

This recipe was born out of garden inspiration. With a beautiful head of cabbage freshly picked, I was debating what to make—until I remembered how much we’ve been loving my Crockpot Kielbasa And Green Beans lately. So I tossed the cabbage into the slow cooker too, and boom—this flavorful kielbasa and cabbage dinner came to life!

The result is a simple yet hearty cabbage and sausage meal that’s perfect for busy weeknights. It’s inspired by the comforting Polish and Hungarian dishes my mom made when I was growing up, and I know you’re going to love it just as much as we do.

How to Make Crockpot Kielbasa and Cabbage recipe

Add cabbage, potatoes, onions and beef kielbasa into your slow cooker. Recipe tip: We’ve made this kielbasa and cabbage recipe a few times this month, and when garden carrots are in season, we love tossing a few (chop them up) in for added sweetness and color.

Place the lid on your slow cooker and set it to cook on low for 6 hours. That’s it! Your kitchen will smell amazing as it simmers!

Enjoy this Slow Cooker Kielbasa and Cabbage dinner! 

How I Serve It

I love serving this as a main dish over egg noodles or white rice because they soak up all that savory broth from the kielbasa and cabbage.

For a heartier dinner that’s needed during Winter months, serve on top of easy homemade mashed potatoes next to fluffy dinner rolls!

Storing Leftovers

Transfer leftovers to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. To reheat, simply warm it on the stove over medium heat or in the microwave until heated through. The broth keeps everything moist and flavorful, making this dish just as tasty the next day!

    This was sooo good !!! Perfect for this cold New England weather we are having here. The only thing I also added were 6 pickled whole pepperoni peppers to give it a slight kick … We loved it !!!

    I am going to try this recipe today as my family love cabbage and sausage in any form. Looks delicious but i was wondering what the sugar does and do i need it as we try to cook as low sugar as possible? Thanks. Looking forward to trying more of your recipes.

      It adds a sweet and smoky taste to the kielbasa that we love. You can def decrease the amount (or skip completely) if you want, it just wont be as sweet!
