This was great. We had it Christmas Eve. My son-in-law could not get enough and wanted the recipe. I followed the recipe exactly except I used reindeer sausage. The flavors blended wonderfully. The aroma made my house smell yummy! My three year old grandson loved it too.

This recipe really takes the sour edge off of sauerkraut. I usually have only had kraut cooked right out of the jar- nothing added, so this was a little on the sweet side for me. But I could get used to it! I am cooking for two, but I made the recipe as directed, only I decreased the kielbasa to 1 lb, and cut it into small chunks. It was the perfect amount. In the future, I may try to decrease the juice as well- it seemed to be too much.
