Braised Bratwurst with Bacon, Apples, and Sauerkraut
 4 Servings We enjoyed this recipe, but it took WAY longer than the suggested time frame. Prep 10 min Cook 25 min Ingredients: One 12-ounce bottle beer 1 cup chicken broth 8 cooked bratwurst sausage 5 slices bacon, chopped 2 onions, sliced 1 pound sauerkraut, drained 2 carrots, shredded 2 granny smith apples, cut into matchsticks Directions: In a saucepan, simmer the beer, chicken broth and bratwurst for 10 minutes. Reserve the bratwurst and cooking liquid separately. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat for 6 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a plate. Add the onions to the skillet and cook over medium-high heat until softened. Add the reserved cooking liquid, bring to a boil and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 8 minutes. Add the sauerkraut, carrots, bacon and bratwurst and cook, covered, until heated through. Stir in the apples. I used a bottle of Yeungling Lager, which added a nice flavor, and I also used beer flavored brats. I basically halved the recipe, using 4 brats (although still 1 c of chicken broth and a whole bottle of beer, and 1 lb of sauerkraut..woops!), 4 slices of bacon, 1 onion, 2 carrots, and 1 apple. It was a bit too much for my skillet to handle, but it did work. I would have liked the apples to be a little bit softer, but perhaps had I sliced them smaller, they might have been. Next time, I will add them to the heat a little bit earlier. So, I'll probably make this again, but not for a weeknight...  related searches : Braised
