Beer Bathed Brats With Sauerkraut And Apples
This brat recipes screams oktoberfest to me. it is best done on the grill as the sauerkraut needs to cook indirectly, but i have done it on the campfire, by arranging the coals. serve with a good german beer!!
Steps
In a heavy-duty foil pan , arrange the bratwurst in a single layer.
Trim the ends from the onion.
Cut the onion in half lengthwise , then cut each half lengthwise into 1 / 8-inch slices.
Core and quarter the apple , and cut lengthwise into 1 / 8-inch slices.
Scatter the onions , apples and sauerkraut over the bratwurst.
In a medium bowl , mix the beer , mustard , and the caraway seeds , if using.
Add the beer mixture to the pan.
Grill over direct medium heat for about 20 minutes , turning the bratwurst 2 or 3 times.
Remove the bratwurst from the pan but leave the pan where it is to continue to cook the sauerkraut mixture.
Grill the bratwurst over direct medium heat until nicely browned , 2 to 3 minutes , turning once.
Serve the bratwurst in hot dog buns with the sauerkraut mixture.
Serve more mustard on top , if desired.
