2Grab two Granny Smith apples, dice them, and throw them in the crock pot.
3In a mixing bowl, add 1/2 cup of brown sugar, 1/2 cup of apple cider, 2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.
4Whisk all ingredients until combined.
5Pour the mixture over the apples and sausage.
6Give it a good stir to make sure everything is coated.
7Throw the lid on and set the temperature to low for 3 to 4 hours.
8Once the time is up, take the lid off and give it another quick stir.
9If you have a to-go crock pot, throw it all in there.
10Stab a sausage and an apple with a toothpick and put them both in your mouth.
