a slightly lighter version, you can cut the butter down to 6 tablespoons and add 2 to 3 tablespoons of chicken broth to keep the sauce loose. If you enjoy a bit of tang, stir in a spoonful of Dijon or stone-ground mustard right into the melted butter before pouring it over the slow cooker ingredients. To introduce gentle heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes over the top before cooking. Smoked sausage, kielbasa, or andouille all work well; choose the one that matches your taste and spice tolerance.
My neighbor Karen brought this over and we scraped the bowl clean. Comfort food at its finest. Just 4 ingredients.
