Ruben Bratwurst

This is a prototype sausage from my friends at A to Z meats; the Ruben Brat. It brings the flavor of the sauerkraut and seasoning of a brat. I added some caramelized onions and some Swiss cheese to have the brat experience. The last thing I did was serve it on rye bread with thousand island. I hope you like it.

4 Ruben brats from A to Z Meats
4 slices Swiss cheese
1 yellow onion
Oil for cooking
4 Slices rye
Thousand Island dressing

Cut onions thin and add to a skillet to caramelize with cooking oil. Add salt to get the water to evaporate.

In a large skillet on medium heat add 1/4 inch water.

Cook for 5 minutes on each side

Remove remaining water and add oil to prevent burning. Brown brats on both sides.

Assembly
Rye bread
Swiss cheese

Thousand island dressing

Serve.

    1. I start then with water then crisp the skin in a hot pan so the skin doesn’t crack and leak out all the juice.
