Fall Bratwurst With Apples And Onions Recipes

Steps:

• Position rack in center of oven; preheat to 400°F. Place caraway seeds and fennel seeds in small resealable plastic bag. Crush seeds with mallet. Add flour and pepper to bag; shake to blend. Spread sauerkraut over bottom of 13x9x2-inch glass or ceramic baking dish. Sprinkle 1/3 of flour mixture over. Arrange onion slices over; sprinkle with half of remaining flour mixture, then lightly with salt. Spread half of apple slices over, then sprinkle with remaining flour mixture. Place bratwurst over apples, then arrange remaining apple slices around bratwurst. Tuck in bay leaves. Mix broth, vermouth, and ketchup in measuring cup. Pour broth mixture evenly over. Cover tightly with foil.
• Roast bratwurst 45 minutes. Uncover; brush with melted butter. Roast uncovered until edges of apples and sausages begin to brown, about 25 minutes longer. Serve with bread.

Steps:

• Put 2 tablespoons butter in a large cast-iron skillet or wide, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add onions, season generously with salt and pepper and stir to coat with butter. Add bay leaf, cloves, allspice, caraway and thyme. Cook, stirring frequently, until soft and nicely browned, about 10 minutes. Reduce heat as necessary to keep onions from browning too quickly.
• Remove onions from pan and arrange on a platter. Put 2 more tablespoons butter in pan, and add apples. Raise heat to medium-high and brown apples on both sides, using a spatula to turn them, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove apples and arrange them on top of onions. Keep platter warm in a low oven.
• Keep stovetop heat at medium and place sausages in pan in one layer. Prick each sausage in several places with the tip of a sharp paring knife or toothpick.
• Let sausages brown slowly on one side (check their progress by turning them over with a fork or tongs) for 6 to 8 minutes. Lower the temperature if they're browning too quickly.
• Turn sausages over, and add 1/2 cup water to the pan. Let water evaporate completely, then continue to let sausages brown slowly for about 5 more minutes. (Cooking sausages at too high a temperature will cause them to burst; err on the cooler side.)
• To serve, place cooked sausages in the center of the onion-apple mixture on platter. Garnish with parsley, if desired.

Steps:

• Sear the sausages in the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the internal temperature is 150 degrees F, about 5 minutes per side. Remove the sausages from the skillet and set aside. Return the skillet to medium-low heat and add more oil if the pan is dry. Add the onions and salt to taste and cook the onions until translucent and just beginning to brown, about 5 minutes.
• Deglaze the skillet with the vinegar, scraping the bottom to get all the brown bits (fond), which equals flavor. Add the cabbage and apples and stir to combine. Let it cook down a bit, stirring occasionally, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and sugar and cook until the cabbage and apples start to soften, another 5 minutes. Return the sausages and any juices that have collected to the skillet. Cover and cook to heat through. Sprinkle in some sage and cook until the internal temperature of the sausages is 165 degrees F, about 5 minutes more. Garnish with additional sage. Adjust the salt if needed, then serve with crusty bread.

Steps:

• Prepare grill for high heat.
• With a fork, poke sausages several times. Place in a pot, cover with water, and simmer over medium-high heat until cooked through, about 7 minutes. Remove from heat, and set aside.
• Warm butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in onions, and cook until soft and translucent. Stir in apples, vinegar, and brown sugar; cook, stirring gently, until caramelized, about 10 to 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, place sausages on grill (or under broiler), and cook until well browned. Serve on a mound of caramelized apples and onions.

Steps:

• Place the sausages in a large pan and add 2 cups water.
• Simmer without piercing the sausage until the water is evaporated and the sausages are browned.
• Add the onions and apples - cook till soft.
• Add carrots, cabbage, caraway and the beer.
• Season with the salt and pepper.
• Cover and simmer for 1 hour or until the cabbage is tender.
• Serve with rolls or bread.

Steps:

• Combine the hard cider, 1 cup of the broth and the bratwurst in a large saucepan, bring to a simmer and gently simmer over low heat for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook until just tender, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining 1/2 cup broth and simmer until the onions are browned and completely soft, about 5 minutes more. Keep the onion mixture warm while you cook the bratwurst.
• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat or heat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Transfer the bratwurst to the grill or grill pan and cook, turning occasionally, until browned, about 10 minutes. Lightly grill the pretzel rolls, cut-side down. Serve the bratwurst topped with the onions and with the pretzel rolls and mustard on the side.

Steps:

• In a skillet over medium heat Saute the garlic and butter for approx one minute.
• Add in the onions, salt, pepper, and enough beer to cover the bottom of the pan.
• Cook the onions over medium heat until tender and caremelized.
• Remove the onions from the pan and place the bratwurst in the pan. Brown the bratwurst and cook.
• Once the bratwurst are cooked add the onions and remaining beer to the pan. Cook over medium heat until the beer has reduced to a thicker sauce with the onions.

Steps:

• Place a sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the bratwurst and cook, turning, for about 15 minutes, until well browned.
• In a small bowl, combine the vinegar, sugar, and beer and mix until the sugar dissolves.
• In a large bowl, combine the cabbage, onions, caraway seeds, and apples and toss well with your hands. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to the slow cooker and pour in the vinegar mixture. Place the bratwurst on top. Cover and cook on low for 4 to 6 hours, until the cabbage is tender to your taste.
• Divide the bratwurst and vegetables evenly among plates and serve hot.

Steps:

• Cut the pork butt, veal, and fat into 1 inch cubes. Spread on a plate, and place in the freezer for 10 minutes to make it easier to chop. Place food processor bowl and blade in the freezer as well for the same amount of time.
• Set up the food processor and add just enough meat to cover the blade. Pulse to form chunks about 3/8 inch in size. Repeat with remaining meat. Process the fat into smaller pieces, about 1/4 inch, and mix it with the meat.
• Put the chopped meat and fat into a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper, sugar, mustard and mustard seed, nutmeg, and sage. Pour in cold milk, and add grated potatoes if desired. Mix together with your hands.
• Make a small patty of the sausage mixture, and fry it in a small pan over medium heat. Taste, and adjust seasonings of the sausage mix if necessary. Cover bowl, and refrigerate for 8 hours to improve flavor before cooking as desired.

Steps:

• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in large skillet over medium heat. Add sausages and cook until beginning to brown, turning occasionally, about 5 minutes. Add onion and apple to sausages in pan; cook until onion and apple are tender and brown, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Add apple cider and chopped sage; increase heat to high and stir until liquid is slightly reduced, about 2 minutes. Stir in lemon juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Using slotted spoon, transfer onion and apple to 2 plates, dividing equally. Top with sausages. Whisk remaining 2 tablespoons butter into cider mixture. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Drizzle over sausages and serve.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Cut the shallots lengthwise into 1/2-inch-thick wedges. Core the apples and cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges. Place the shallots and apples on a sheet pan, drizzle with the 1 tablespoon olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Roast the mixture for 10 to 15 minutes, until the shallots are just starting to brown at the edges.
• Meanwhile, place the sausages on a plate. Using a fork, prick a few holes in each sausage. Drizzle the sausages with olive oil and toss to coat.
• Add the rosemary and mustard to the pan with the apples and shallots, and toss, spreading everything out into one even layer. Arrange the sausages on the pan, evenly distributed, and roast for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping the sausages and tossing the apples and shallots with the juices released from the sausages halfway through, until the sausages are browned and cooked to 160 degrees and the shallots are tender and caramelized.
• Transfer the sausages to a serving platter and discard the rosemary sprigs. Pour the vinegar over the apples and shallots, and toss well, scraping up any browned bits from the pan. Transfer to the serving platter with the sausages, sprinkle with parsley, if using, and serve immediately.
