Ingredients
  

  • 2-3 large onions thinly sliced
  • 1 1/2-2 pounds sausages pork or beef
  • 1 1/2 cups beef stock
  • 1-2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

Instructions
 

  • Peel and thinly slice the onions from root to tip for even cooking.
  • Optional: In a skillet over medium-high heat, brown the sausages for 2–3 minutes per side to build flavor.
  • Spread the sliced onions evenly in the bottom of the slow cooker.
  • Place the sausages on top of the onions in a single layer if possible.
  • In a bowl, mix the beef stock and Worcestershire sauce, then pour evenly over the sausages and onions.
  • Cover and cook on LOW for 6–8 hours or HIGH for 3–4 hours until onions are soft and sausages are fully cooked.
  • For thicker gravy, remove the lid for the last 30 minutes or mash some of the onions and stir back into the sauce.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot with onions and gravy spooned over the sausages.

Notes

The onions naturally thicken the gravy as they break down, so no flour or cornstarch is needed. Serve over mashed potatoes, rice, or crusty bread to soak up the rich sauce.
