Sweet and Sour Sausage Bites

Here is a recipe that I slightly altered from one a former student shared with me.  It makes enough to fill a crock pot.  Great for parties!

2 pounds of smoked beef sausage, cut into 1/2 inch bites
2 medium onions, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
2 12 oz jars of apricot preserves
3 T.  yellow mustard
2 T.  butter

Melt butter in large skillet and saute onions on low to medium heat until beginning to caramelize. Remove onions and place in crockpot.  Lightly brown sausage bites in skillet and add to crockpot.  Put apricot preserves in skillet and stir on low until nearly melted.  Add mustard and mix well.  Pour sauce in crockpot.  Keeps on low for 5-8 hours.  You could also add cubes of bell peppers and a can of pineapple chunks to a more Hawaiian flavor.
