Light-bodied American lagers, such as Budweiser, work best for this recipe. Standard-size hot dog buns will be too small for the brats, so buy larger hoagie rolls. Ingredients:
1 lb onion, sliced into 1/4-inch-thick rings |
1/4 cup soy sauce |
2 tablespoons brown sugar, packed |
2 1/2 lbs bratwursts (10 sausages) |
3 cups beer |
1/4 cup dijon mustard, plus extra for serving |
1/2 teaspoon caraway seed |
1 cup sauerkraut |
10 hoagie rolls |
Directions:
1. 1. Combine onions, soy sauce, and sugar in bowl and microwave until just softened, about 5 minutes, stirring halfway through cooking. Spread onions and their liquid in bottom of slow cooker. Arrange bratwursts in single layer on top of onions.
2. 2. Whisk beer, mustard, and caraway seeds together in bowl and add to slow cooker. Cover and cook until bratwursts are tender, 6 to 8 hours on low or 4 hours on high.
3. 3. Transfer bratwursts to platter and tent loosely with aluminum foil. Stir sauerkraut into onion mixture in slow cooker and let sit until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Strain onion-sauerkraut mixture through colander, discarding liquid, and transfer to serving bowl. Serve bratwursts on rolls, topped with onion-sauerkraut mixture and mustard.
