My family LOVED this recipe. For an extra bonus if you have any leftovers slice the kielbasa into small pieces pour kielbasa and all leftover juice into a frying pan and heat up. The leftover juice caramelizes and it is amazing.

Chris is right .... it tasted just like a hotdog. Big surprise and big disappointment.

I'll definitely try this. I have a similar recipe I use with brown sugar, can of drained pineapple chunks and drained cherries.

This had a good taste to it, but I will not be making again. The sausage had a texture similar to hotdogs once it was done cooking.
