Ingredients

  • 2 lbs Italian Sausages
  • 24 oz Marinara Sauce
  • 3 Bell Peppers (sliced)
  • 1 Red Onion (sliced)
  • 10 slices Provolone Cheese
  • 10 Brat Buns

Instructions

  • Pour marinara sauce into the bottom of a 6 quart slow cooker and add sausages, then peppers and onions. 
  • Cook on low for 5 hours, or until sausages are cooked through.
  • Optional: For firmer peppers and onions, you can wait to add them in until the final hour of cooking.
  • Place sausages on buns and top with peppers, onions, sauce, and cheese.

Notes

Tip: Many hearty brat buns taste best lightly toasted.  If you cannot find brat buns, hoagie rolls will also work.
 
Sauce from the crock pot can either be added to the bun or served separately to dip the sausage/bun into.
