Sweet and Sour Kielbassi

Sick of the meatballs with the grape jelly sauce (ick) at every holiday party? Try something different. The folks in southwestern PA love their kielbassi, and this dish makes it taste yum! This is a large potluck-sized recipe, so cut in half for smaller parties.

Ingredients

2 large cans pineapple chunks (do NOT drain)
2 jars chili sauce
1 cup brown sugar
6 lb. kielbassi

Preheat oven to 350. Spray baking dish with cooking spray - if using full recipe, use a lasagna-sized pan. Half could go in a 13x9 baking dish. Or, you could use a large crock pot, also sprayed with cooking spray.

Combine chili sauce, brown sugar, and pineapple chunks (with their juice) in a large bowl. Slice kielbassi into bite-sized chunks and toss with sauce mixture.

Pour into baking dish of choice. Bake at 350 for 2-3 hours. Crock pot, on low for about 5-6 hours. Serve hot.
