Serves/Makes: 4 | Ready In: < 30 minutes
Ingredients:
1 can (16 ounce size) sauerkraut, rinsed and drained
1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
1 bay leaf
4 links bratwurst
2 bottles dark German beer
4 sub rolls or hoagie buns
Dijon mustard
Directions:
Place the sauerkraut in the bottom of a large saucepan or deep skillet. Top with the sliced onion and tuck the bayleaf into the mixture.
Place the bratwurst in a single layer on top of the onions.
Gently pour the beer into the pan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat then reduce the heat to a low simmer. Cover the pan and let cook for 10 minutes.
While the brats are cooking, heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Turn on the oven broiler.
Slice the rolls lengthwise, being careful not to cut all the way through. Gently open the rolls and place cut-side up on a baking sheet. Place under the broiler and heat until just toasty. Remove immediately.
Transfer the brats to the grill pan with tongs and cook just long enough, turning as needed, to form grill marks.
Remove the bay leaf from the sauerkraut. Drain the beer from sauerkraut.
Spread mustard on the cut sides of the rolls. Top with a layer of sauerkraut and a bratwurst. Serve immediately.
