Recipe by Chef on the coast

The original recipe comes from Taste of Home - but I altered some things for what I had and family preference. For the sausage in this recipe - I used elk/deer sausage that our family friend gave to us. You could use any kielbasa type sausage as well. This recipe has a lot of sauce - which we feel is perfect for sopping up with a good loaf of bread! Yield and time are approximate.
