OKTOBERFEST BRATS WITH MUSTARD SAUCE

• For sauce, mix first five ingredients. Cut each bratwurst into thirds; thread onto four metal or soaked wooden skewers., Grill brats, covered, over medium heat until golden brown and heated through, 7-10 minutes, turning occasionally. Serve with sauerkraut and sauce.

BEER-BRAISED BRATWURST & ONIONS

Steps:

• In a large (12-inch) cast iron skillet or nonstick pan with a tight-fitting lid, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the bratwurst and sear until nicely browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Using tongs, transfer the sausage to a plate; set aside. Add the onions and salt to the skillet and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are softened and golden brown, about 5 minutes (do not burn; reduce the heat if necessary).
• Place the bratwurst back in the pan on top of the onions, add the beer, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover with the lid, and simmer for 10 minutes (at this point the sausages will be partially cooked through). Remove the cover, increase the heat to medium, and continue cooking until the bratwurst are cooked through and the beer is reduced by about three quarters, 10 to 12 minutes more. Serve the bratwurst and onions on rolls with mustard and sauerkraut, if desired.
• Note: I use Johnsonville Original Brats; avoid any brats already flavored with beer, as the finished dish will taste too bitter. Also be sure to purchase fresh (not cooked) sausages.
• Note: Lager is a family of beers that includes bright lagers, amber lagers, dark lagers, Oktoberfests, and pilsners. I use Sam Adams Oktoberfest, but Budweiser, Bud Light, Coors Light, and Miller Lite are all good options. No need to use anything fancy!
• Note: The nutritional information does not include the optional serving ingredients.

BRATS IN A BLANKET WITH BEER MUSTARD CHEESE SAUCE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F (220°C).
• In a large pot, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until beginning to soften. Add the bratwurst to the pot and pour in the beer. Bring to a boil, then cover and cook for 8-10 minutes, until the bratwurst are white and firm, but not completely cooked through. Transfer the sausages to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside. Reserve ½ cup of the beer and discard the rest.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, add the baking soda and stir to dissolve.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• While the water is boiling, roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to a 10 x 6-inch (25 x 15 cm) rectangle, about ¼ inch (6 mm) thick. Cut the dough in half horizontally, then cut each half into 3 triangles.
• Set a dough in front of you with the short end at the bottom and roll out to flatten slightly. Place a sausage at the bottom of the triangle and scoop a heaping tablespoon of sauerkraut above the sausage. Pull the bottom edge of the dough over the sausage and sauerkraut, tucking snugly, then roll up and over the tip of the triangle to seal. Repeat with remaining dough, bratwurst, and sauerkraut.
• Working in batches of 2-3, carefully drop the wrapped bratwurst into the boiling water for 20-30 seconds. Use a slotted spoon to remove the bratwurst and transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
• Let the dough dry out for about 5 minutes, then brush with the egg yolks and sprinkle generously with flaky sea salt.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through, until the dough is deep golden brown and the bratwurst begins to brown.
• While the bratwurst are baking, make the cheese sauce: In a medium saucepan, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 2-3 minutes, until golden brown. Whisk in the reserved beer, milk, and cream until smooth. Add the Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, cayenne, mustard, and kosher salt. Cook until the sauce is bubbling and thick, whisking occasionally to prevent burning, 2-4 minutes.
• Whisk in the cheddar cheese and cook for 2-3 minutes, until completely melted and smooth. Transfer the sauce to a serving bowl.
• Serve the hot bratwurst in a blanket and cheese sauce immediately, along with additional sauerkraut if desired.
• Enjoy!
