Line a large rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and set aside for later. This will make cleanup easy and give you the surface you need for caramelizing the kielbasa under the broiler.
Slice the kielbasa into 1/2-inch coins. Aim for even slices so they cook and glaze at the same rate. Place the sliced kielbasa into a large slow cooker (5- to 6-quart works well).
In a medium bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, ketchup, and yellow mustard until the mixture is completely smooth and no dry sugar remains. The sauce should be thick, glossy, and pourable.
Pour the brown sugar sauce evenly over the sliced kielbasa in the slow cooker. Use a spatula or spoon to gently stir, making sure every piece is coated in the sweet, sticky mixture.
Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on LOW for 4 to 5 hours, or on HIGH for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, until the kielbasa is heated through and the sauce is bubbling and slightly thickened. Stir once or twice during cooking to keep everything well coated.
