Good stuff! I used chicken stock and didn't have rosemary..... I also added 1Tbsp cajun seasoning. Thanks for the great recipe!

Very tasty. We had particularly nice sausages so that probably made a big difference. Took them out of the casings instead of cooking and slicing

Awesome, I used keilbasa, and chicken stock, but other than that I stayed with the recipe. My whole family loved this, thank you so much for the wonderful recipe.
