I love easy appetizers I can make in the crock pot like my grape jelly meatballs, slow cooker little smokies, and Asian Meatballs. These crockpot bbq kielbasa bites are very similar. They only require a few ingredients and a few minutes of prep. Serve on a toothpick at parties or serve over egg noodles or rice for an easy dinner.

Ingredient Notes and Shopping Tips

ingredients including kielbasa cut into coins, grape jelly, chili sauce and BBQ sauce.

Sausage: I like using kielbasa because of its garlic flavor, but any rope style sausage will work great. You could even use turkey or chicken sausage.
BBQ Sauce: Sweet Baby Ray's is my favorite. Stubb's is also good if you prefer a less sweet sauce. Avoid super thin vinegar based sauce.
Chili Sauce: I used Heinz. Note this is a thicker, zester version of ketchup. Do not Asian chili sauce or hot sauce, it will be too spicy!

Krystle's Tips: Steal My Culinary School Secrets

Don't Keep Browning: Not only does it add flavor, but it helps remove excess fat so the sauce isn't greasy.
Don't Use High Heat: Cooking on high in the crock pot can cause them to overcook which toughens the casing.
