Ingredients:
2 lbs. ground beef
1 lb. sausage links
6 medium red potatoes
6 carrots
2 onions
1 lb. mild cheddar cheese

Make 2" hamburger patties, brown, salt & pepper. Scrub potatoes and slice into 1/2" thick pieces. Peel carrots and slice into 1/4" thick pieces. Peel onions and slice 1/3" thick. In a heavy roaster pan, layer the hamburger patties, potatoes, carrots, and onions. Salt and pepper each layer as you go. Place link sausages on top. (I like to cut the sausages into 1" pieces) Add 1/2 cup water, cover with a lid and simmer for about 1 hour or until vegetables are tender. Just before serving place slices of cheese on top of sausages and continue to simmer (covered) for 10 more minutes or until cheese has melted. Enjoy!

You can do two layers of vegetables if you like. This works well on the stove top, in the oven or in a Dutch oven. We grow our own vegetables and absolutely love this scrumptious meal. It's an easy dish to serve to a large crowd by increasing the ingredient amounts.

** This was a favorite recipe prepared by my father when they would go deer hunting...a long time ago.
