Saucy Polish Sausage
12 Links Fresh Polish Sausage
Clove of Fresh Garlic (Minced) or more depending on your taste buds.
1 Green Pepper (chopped)
1 or 2 Onions (chopped)
1 Can Tomato Sauce 26.5 oz)
1 Large Can Diced Tomotes (28 oz)
1 Can Contadina Pizza Sauce (26 oz)
You can use any brand of Pizza sauce, Contadina is what I had in the pantry
Boil the Polish Sausage until cooked about an hour. If you have the foam on top, keep taking that off has it boils. I take a fork and as it cook, puncture the skin to remove more of the oil from the sausage so it won’t be so greasy.
Put a little bit of oil in a skillet and add your chopped onions, chopped green peppers and garlic and saute.
After the sausage has cooked, place on cutting board and cut each sausage into 4 pieces, (nice bite size chuncks)
Have a big pot handy, add your tomatoe sauce, tomatoes, Pizza Sauce in the pot
Heat it up just a tad, then add your cooked, cut up Polish Sausage to the pot, add Oregano and Basil to the pot.
Slowly simmer for about an hour on low heat.
You can serve the dish as a main meat dish or serve over pasta. I use egg noodles if I have company to make it stretch for more visitors.
The Pizza Sauce give it spicy flavor when mixed with the Tomato sauce. We usually do about 20 lbs of sausage at time and freeze the leftovers for future meal.
Enjoy!!

Crock Pot bbq meatloaf
2 to 2-1/2 pounds ground chuck
1 can tomato soup, divided
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 cup crushed Ritz crackers
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, divided
2 tablespoons dried minced onions
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup water
2 teaspoons prepared mustard
2 tablespoons brown sugar
Combine ground chuck with half of the tomato soup, egg, crackers,
honey, 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, onions, salt, and pepper. Mix
well and form into a ball. Place a crinkled length of aluminum foil in the
crockpot so the ends extend an inch or so out of the pot. Place the
meatloaf in the pot (the foil will make it easier to lift the meatloaf out
and keep it out of the drippings).
Combine remaining soup, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, the water,
mustard, and brown sugar. Whisk together and pour over the meat loaf.
Cover and cook on LOW for 8 to 10 hours.
