Bratwurst and beer are synonymous of Oktoberfest. Here is a recipe that combines the two deliciously in an appetizer that you can serve guests at a casual weekend get-together. A slow-cooker makes preparation easy. Choose a light-tasting beer for cooking brats. Hearty ales might leave the meat tasting slightly bitter. This is a recipe that I found in our local newspaper, sounds delicious!!
Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs bratwursts (5 or 6 links)
1 (341 ml) bottle amber ale
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar or 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
spicy brown mustard
rye cocktail bread
Directions:
1. In a 4 1/2 litre slow cooker, combine bratwurst, ale, onion, brown sugar and vinegar. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours.
2. Cut bratwurst into 1/2-inch thick slices.
3. For mini open-faced sandwiches, spread mustard on cocktail rye bread. Top with bratwurst slices and cooked onion.
