Frankly Sauerkraut Cooked On The Grill Recipes

QUICK SAUERKRAUT WITH GRILLED BRATS AND MUSTARD BAR

Steps:

• Preheat a grill for direct and indirect cooking.
• Toss the cabbage with the shallots, vinegar, brown sugar and 1 tablespoon salt in a large microwave-safe bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and microwave on high for 5 minutes. Stir well and let stand for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place the brats on the indirect heat portion of the grill and grill, turning occasionally, until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F, 15 to 18 minutes. Move the brats over to the direct side of the grill and cook, turning occasionally, until lightly browned on all sides, about 5 minutes.
• While the brats finish grilling, melt the butter in a large skillet placed directly on the grill. Add the caraway seeds and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the sauerkraut and stir until well coated. Stir in the dill if using.
• Serve the bratwursts with the sauerkraut and assorted mustards on the side.

GRILLED KIELBASA WITH SAUERKRAUT AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat grill. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Cut kielbasa into 3-inch lengths and butterfly lengthwise. Place on hot grill and cook for 4 to 5 minutes on each side turning frequently, charring all sides. Remove from grill. Transfer kielbasa to a baking sheet and place in oven to cook for another 5 to 6 minutes.
• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add butter and sugar. Allow sugar to cook to a golden brown color. Add onions and cook until caramelized. Stir in the sauerkraut and cook for 5 to 6 minutes until onions and sauerkraut are wilted and colored.
• Remove kielbasa from oven and cut into 1-inch pieces. Add to pan of sauerkraut and onions. Toss together and cook for 1 minute. Transfer to a platter, garnish with parsley and serve with Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce.
• In a small bowl, mix all ingredients until well combined.

GRILLED SAUERKRAUT-STUFFED KIELBASA

• Cut a slit down the length of the kielbasa, leaving an inch on both ends. Be careful not to cut all the way through as you are just making a pocket. Stuff sauerkraut into the pocket.
• Carefully place the kielbasa back on the grill, stuffed side up. Grill for 4 minutes more. Slice into serving portions and serve.
