Bratwurst and Sauerkraut Skillet image

My mother used to make this all the time. It's a recipe that's been passed down the German side of my family for many generations, and we've all put our own spin on it over time. Feel free to add your own, too. Use a beer you like to drink, or leave out the sugar and use apple cider, if you prefer.

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb bratwurst
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 (15 ounce) jar sauerkraut, drained
1 medium onion, sliced
1 tablespoon sugar
1 (16 ounce) bottle beer
6 hot dog buns or 6 hoagie rolls
6 teaspoons spicy brown mustard

Steps:

  • Brown sausages and onion slices in oil in a wide skillet. The sausages do not need to be cooked through at this stage, you just want to get some color on them.
  • Add sauerkraut, sugar, and beer. Stir as best you can around the sausages.
  • Bring to a slow boil, reduce heat, and simmer until sausages are cooked through.
  • Spread buns or rolls with mustard, and add a sausage and a bit of the sauerkraut and onion to each.
  • This is great accompanied by the same beer you cooked with.

This was really surprisingly good for such a quick and easy meal. The flavors blended well together and Dave added the mustard on the side. I thought this would serve 4 but Dave was hungry so I stated between 2-4 servings. He kept taking the brats out of the pan while I was cooking. From American Home Town Cookbook made my way.
