The whole family loved this! I honestly didn't think they would since they are not sauerkraut lovers and not much for unusual food combinations, but the flavors melded so well that they loved the result! I had considered converting this to a saucepan instead of the slow cooker but I'm glad I didn't. It is truly meant for the slow cooker. I did have to substitute cranberry juice for the apple juice as I was out of apple juice.

I have been looking for this recipe for over 50 years. My aunt used to fix this every Christmas Eve for a tree-trimming party at her house for all the family in the area. It was always a success and we all came back for more the next year.

Excellent fall recipe! I followed the recipe, but added one peeled, sliced sweet potato, as it needed to be used up. This has a very nice combination of flavors and we will have this again. Thanks, Carole in Orlando

Wonderful, easy recipe! This smelled absolutely delicious when it was cooking. I served it with a side of German potato salad (German Potato Salad) and my apple-cranberry crunch (Apple Cranberry Crunch) for dessert.
