Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 3 cups low sodium beef broth
  • 1 pound smoked sausages (cut into thin rounds)
  • 0.5 pound thick-sliced good quality smoked bacon (diced)
  • 2 pounds russet potatoes (peeled and sliced into 1/2-inch thick rounds)
  • 2 yellow onions (sliced into thin rounds)
  • 3 large carrots (sliced into thin rounds)
  • 1 teaspoon salt to taste
  • 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  2. In a large saucepan, combine the beef broth, sliced sausages, and bacon. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove sausages and bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside; reserve the broth.
  3. Lightly grease a Dutch oven or casserole dish. Spread one-third of the potatoes on the bottom, followed by half of the onions and carrots. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  4. Layer the remaining ingredients: add half of the reserved sausage and bacon, then repeat with another layer of potatoes, onions, carrots, and more sausage/bacon. Season each layer with salt and pepper.
  5. Pour the reserved broth over the top. Cover and bake for 40 minutes. Uncover, add 1/2 cup water if needed, and bake 15 more minutes until lightly browned.
  6. Let rest for 5–10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley and ladle into bowls.
