Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees (f). * or grill
• Fine dice the onion and carrot and set aside. You may use a food processor for this if you want to.
• Cut sausage about 1/2 in. - 3/4 inch slices . Set aside.
• Cut potatoes into 1- 1 1/2 inch cubes. Set aside. (sometimes I will cut the potatoes while I'm browning the sausage)
• Heat large pot. Add olive oil then brown sausage. Remove from pot with a slotted spoon and set aside. You want to leave as much oil as possible in the pot.
• Add the diced carrot and onion to the pot and cook for just a minute.
• Now add back the sausage and add potatoes, along with the garlic powder, celery seed, parsley and salt and pepper. Give it a good mix then add the flour and stir to coat everything.
• Add chicken stock and stir well remembering to scrape the bottom to loosen the yummy bits. Spray a 9x13 in. baking dish . Pour mixture into the pan,cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes to an hour or till potatoes are tender. Let sit for 5 minutes so the liquid will thicken before serving.
• * You can skip the oven all together and put it on the grill or smoker. Keep it over indirect heat. Check it and give it a stir every so often.... Very good !
