Ingredients:
16 oz. sauerkraut, drained well

Directions:
Place a saucepan on the stove, then add the brown sugar and beer. Stir until well blended. Make sure to dissolve the sugar completely.
Turn the heat to medium and simmer the mixture for a few minutes until it becomes thick.
Slice the kielbasa into medium cuts and put them in the bottom of a slow cooker followed by the drained sauerkraut. Cover the kielbasa entirely.
Add the beer-sugar mixture on top of the sauerkraut.
Cover and seal the slow cooker, then cook everything for about 4 hours on a high setting or 8 hours on a low setting.

This is best served with toasted buns!
Place any leftovers in an airtight container, then put them in the fridge. They can last up to 4 days. Reheat for a few minutes before serving again.
I used a 6-quart slow cooker for this recipe.
