Ingredients

• ½ cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup half-and-half
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 1 tablespoon ground black pepper
• 2 red bell peppers, chopped
• 1 (32 ounce) container chicken broth
• ½ cup salted butter, cut into small pieces
• 1 pound bulk hot Italian sausage
• 3 large red potatoes, cubed
• 2 (16 ounce) cans sweet cream-style corn
• 1 (16 ounce) can whole-kernel corn, drained

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine potatoes, chicken broth, cream-style corn, whole-kernel corn, half-and-half, butter, bell peppers, onion, and black pepper in a slow cooker set to Low.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet, breaking it up with a spoon into small pieces, until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove cooked sausage to a bowl, draining as much fat as possible. Sprinkle sausage with flour and toss to coat. Add sausage to the slow cooker.

Step 3

Cover and cook on Low, stirring regularly, until vegetables are tender, about 4 hours.
