How to Make Crock Pot Sausage, Green Beans and Potatoes

We have updated this post with with a cooking show video.

I remember the first time I ever had this recipe. It was actually the stovetop version. Michael and I had just started dating. Truth be told, I am pretty sure he was just trying to impress me. Well, it worked! I can’t even count the number of times we have had this over the almost four years of our marriage.

You all know how much I love my crock pot, so I couldn’t resist cRockin’ this recipe.

It is still as easy as the stovetop version from Michael’s bachelor days, but it was great for when I worked outside of our home.  Instead of making it when I got home from work and having to wait for it to get done, I could throw it together before I left for work (or better yet, have Michael throw it together!) and have it waiting for me when I arrived home after a long day of work!

Crock Pot Sausage, Green Beans and Potatoes Notes:

  • For this Crock Pot Sausage, Green Beans and Potatoes, I used my Travel Crock Pot. You will want to use a 5-6 quart crock pot for the full recipe. If you only have a smaller crock pot, I would recommend cutting this recipe in half because the full recipe definitely needs a large crock pot.

    I grew up with this meal. Marines eat it, so Marine families eat it. We sometimes use ham instead of sausage especially after Easter using up leftover ham. I can’t use canned vegetables because I taste the aluminum, something to do with my epilepsy. So I use fresh or frozen and use chicken broth. I love to use red potatoes! I also use a no salt seasoning that has multiple spices. Always make cornbread with it, sometimes with salsa in it for a little kick! 😁

    This is sooooo good 😊 Only thing I did different was rinsed my can green beans in cold water and added 1 pack of Lipton onion soup for seasoning and 2 cups water since I drained green beans. I was at work looking for something easy saw this read the reviews went home at lunch threw it together come home 4 hours later my house smelled so good let cook a hour or 2 later was planning on making jiffy cornbread with it sample it it was so good I didn’t make cornbread 🤣 Hubby loved it will definitely make again will add more veggies maybe carrots next time

    I make this as often as my family will let me. I use frozen green beans from trader joes and add about 1 cup of unsalted chicken broth. Its all I can do not to eat this straight out of the crock pot! Its a keeper and in my recipe book.

    I made this tonight. But I made a few changes – I used fresh green beans that I had blanched first and then added 20oz of 2ater + 4 tablespoons of Better than Bouillon Vegetable Base, a tablespoon of bacon grease and 1 tablespoon of minced garlic. The canned beans have way to much salt for me so that I why I used fresh. However, I follow the recipe from there but used Kielbasa cause that was what I had on hand. Super good dinner. Thanks so much for posting.

    The first time I made this, didn’t know if I would like or not (I love) I used my small one quart crock and amazed how good it was. I guessed at how much ingredients to use, and it turned out great. I now mke it in my 2 quart slow cooker, and guess how much of the ingredients to use and have never been disappointed. I now have at least two meals from this. How I love this.

      So glad to hear it! In case you (or others) didn’t know, you can hover over the blue number of the serving size on our recipe cards and adjust it to the number of servings you need. It will change the amounts on the ingredients to match the number of servings needed. Hope this helps in the future!

    I love this reciipe and have made it for quite awhile now. Used Turkey Kelbassa znow,
    due to medical problems, can no long have any kind of sausage. What can I sub for
    the Kelbassa? I can have and thought about chicken, but wonder if it will work. Do you have a suggestion? Thank you.

      I haven’t tried using frozen green beans in this recipe. It might work. You will definitely need to add liquid since the liquid in this recipe comes from the cans of green beans. You could try a combination of water and broth to give it a full flavor. If you give it a try, let me know how it goes!

      I make this often for my family with beans from our garden that are frozen so I add 2 cups water and put sausage on top potatoes and beans on bottom. We do not add onion. We serve it as a meal and smash the potatoes on our plates and put butter on them. Has been my boys favorite meal since they were little now in their 20s.

    Hub and I enjoyed this. I used frozen green beans so I added 1 cup of beef broth. I but the recipe in half so I used 3 potatoes and that was too many for us. Next time I think I’ll try red potatoes. I also added some Cajun seasoning instead of red pepper flakes. Good recipe!

      You will want to bring your pot to a boil, reduce heat to a low boil, and let it cook until your potatoes are fork tender. Enjoy!

    Really delicious! A added 3/4 c of chicken stock and 3 tbs of butter. After it was cooked I scooped out all the veggies and sausage and made a gravy with a little cornstarch right in the crockpot. It was delicious poured over the top. My family devoured it. Thank you!

      Hi Sharon!

      Do you have a 4 quart slow cooker? If so, I would recommend using it and the same timing. We have never had a problem with the green beans getting mushy. We usually use cut or Italian style, and they seem to hold up well. I hope this helps.
