I went ahead and added 8 ounces of our fav pepperoni chopped in medium sized pieces and browned it with the sausage. I then drained all the meat on paper towels before putting it in the crock pot with other ingred. Turned out really good. I served it with Asiago cheese because we like the flavor.

Looks like pepperoni in the picture!!!??? Is there pepperoni in this recipe? If so, when does it get added?

Yes how much pepperoni and Johnsonville Ground Sausage. Is it a pork sausage or Italian? I gave it an average because I haven't made it yet.
