Our Sourcing Standards

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon oil, for cooking

    (We like avocado oil for its high smoke point.)

  • 2 packages Niman Ranch Bratwurst

  • 1 medium onion

    thinly sliced

  • 3 cups green cabbage

    shredded

  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt

  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 1 cup beer

    Any lager works well here.

  • 4 cups sauerkraut

    drained

Step By Step

Instructions

1
Heat the oven to 325°F.
2
Heat a large oven safe sauté pan on stovetop over medium heat.
3
Add cooking oil to hot pan. Sear bratwurst for 3 minutes on each side or until they get a nice brown color.
4
Remove bratwurst from pan and set aside. Add onions and cabbage to sauté pan, season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, for 5 minutes.
5
While onions and cabbage are in the sauté pan, add beer and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring and scraping the pan to get any browned bits up off the bottom of the pan. Stir in drained sauerkraut and mix.
6
Return bratwurst and any juices to pan. Cover and place in oven for 30 minutes.
7
Serve with brown mustard and a cold beer!
