Crock Pot Sausage Green Beans and Potatoes FAQs
We love the flavor of kielbasa, but any smoked sausage will work well. Choose your favorite.
It’s not required to use creamer potatoes for this dish, but we find it makes things easier. If you don’t have creamer potatoes, just cut up regular potatoes into 1 to 2-inch chunks.
Waky or all-purpose potatoes like red potatoe, Yukon Gold, or creamer potatoes work well, holding up through the long cooking time without getting mushy.
