Beer Steamed Sausages Recipes

BEER-STEAMED SAUSAGES

Steps:

• Prick each sausage in several places with tip of small knife. Pour beer into bottom of pan fitted with steaming rack or basket, making sure beer doesn't cover rack, and heat beer to boiling. Adjust heat to maintain gentle boil and place sausages on rack. Steam covered until sausages are firm to the touch and just cooked through, 6-8 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to paper towels.
• About 10 minutes before serving, heat butter and oil in large heavy skillet. Pat sausages dry and place in skillet. Saute, turning with tongs, until well browned on all sides, about 10 minutes. Cut sausages diagonally into 3 or 4 pieces each. Serve hot with cornichons, onions, and mustard.

CABBAGE AND SAUSAGES BRAISED IN BEER

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Add the sausages and brown on all sides, about 5 minutes.
• Add the beer and mustard and simmer until slightly reduced, about 3 minutes.
• Add the cabbage, stir to combine, cover and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Stir again and cook for an additional 2-4 minutes until the cabbage is wilted but still green.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.

BEER SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Pour the beer into a large pot, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Layer the potatoes into the bottom of the pot, and sprinkle a little Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper over the potatoes. Layer the baby carrots, onion, smoked sausage, and cabbage, sprinkling every layer with a bit more of the Italian seasonings, salt, and pepper. Turn heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 45 minutes.

BEER-BRAISED SAUSAGES WITH WARM POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven or heavy pot, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add sausages and cook until brown on all sides, about 8 minutes. Add onion and cook until softened, about 7 minutes. Add beer, potatoes, and 2 cups water; season with salt and pepper and press to submerge potatoes in cooking liquid. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat to medium, and cook until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
• Transfer sausages to a serving platter and keep warm. In a large bowl, stir together 1 tablespoon oil, vinegar, and parsley. With a slotted spoon, transfer potato mixture to dressing (reserve cooking liquid) and toss to combine.
• Return pot to high heat; boil cooking liquid until reduced to 1 cup, about 12 minutes. Return sausages to pot and cook until heated through, 2 minutes. Place sausages and dressed potatoes on serving platter; drizzle half the sauce over top. Serve sausages and potatoes with remaining sauce alongside.
