BEER GLAZED BRATS AND SAUERKRAUT
I came up with this recipe, because simply simmering sausages in beer and onions tasted weak. I was looking for a more intense beer flavor with a little bite, and this is it. A very satisfying dish if you crave German flavor that's Americanized. We love this dish served on potato rolls with spicy hot German mustard, Swiss cheese, and ice cold beer on the side.

- Simmer the brats slowly: This will help to ensure that they are cooked evenly and that the flavors have time to meld.
- Don't overcrowd the pot: If you are cooking a lot of brats, do it in batches so that they have enough room to cook properly.
- Use a quality sauerkraut: A good sauerkraut will have a tangy, slightly sour flavor. Avoid sauerkraut that is too vinegary or sweet.
- Serve the brats and sauerkraut with your favorite toppings: Some popular options include mustard, ketchup, relish, and onions.
