Make sure to oil the skillet with oil or butter and begin cooking the Kielbasa. Then add in the sauerkraut with the seasoning and cook mixture together. Combining these ingredients take just a few minute to cook.

Another option is to cook this recipe in the slow cooker. Place the crock pot on low and cook for about 2 to 3 hours. Make sure the kielbasa is fully cooked and the sauerkraut is warmed.

Onion – When cooking this recipe, we like to use chopped fresh onion. But you can use onion powder if you prefer.
Mustard – Feel free to change the mustard to what you prefer. You can even use Dijon Mustard as a great substitute to brown mustard.
