Time 4h10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 package brats (usually comes 5 to a pack)
2 Tbsp butter
2 cups sauerkraut, do not drain
1/2 large onion, sliced

  • Add the sauerkraut with it's liquid to the slow cooker. Add the beer, and onions.
  • Place the brats on top and dot with the remaining butter.
  • Press the sausages down into the sauerkraut and liquid to nestle, while they don't need to be fully covered in liquid, having them partially down in the beer and sauerkraut liquid helps to keep them moist.
  • Add the lid and cook on high for 4 hours, or until the internal temperature is 160F+. Brats do well up to 190F.
