Number Of Ingredients 19

FOR BRATWURST:
2 bottle beer (12 oz each)
1 large onion, chopped
6 Tbsp brown mustard
1 tsp caraway seeds
1 tsp ground coriander
12 bratwursts, uncooked (about 5 oz each)
FOR CARAWAY KRAUT:
2 Tbsp butter
1 small onion, chopped
2 tsp caraway seeds
2 tsp brown mustard
2 c sauerkraut, drained
freshly ground black pepper
FOR SANDWICHES:
8 kaiser rolls (or rye bread)
brown mustard, as needed
8 thinly sliced cheese (swiss, provolone, gouda, or gruyere)
1 c dill pickles, chopped

Steps:

  • 1. Make marinade: Combine beer, onion, mustard, caraway seeds and coriander in large saucepan. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes. Add bratwursts; simmer, covered, 15 minutes. Remove from heat. Leave brats in marinade.
  • 2. Heat grill to high.
  • 3. Make kraut: Melt butter in medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in onion and caraway seeds; cook until onion turns translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in mustard, sauerkraut and pepper to taste. Reduce heat to low; cover, keep warm.
  • 4. Make sandwiches: Drain brats; discard marinade. Halve brats lengthwise; cut halves in half crosswise.
  • 5. Grill brat pieces uncovered until browned but still juicy, about 2 minutes per side.
  • 6. Toast rolls, cut-side down, on edge of grill, about 30 seconds.
  • 7. Assemble sandwiches: Spread both sides of toasted roll with mustard. On bottom roll, add slice of cheese, 6 brat pieces and large dollop kraut; sprinkle dill pickle on top. Close with top roll; push roll down to mingle juices and ingredients.
