FRIED SAUSAGE SAUERKRAUT BALLS

Do you have a dish that if it isn't served at a holiday meal you're a little upset? Sauerkraut balls is that dish for me; I expect my mom to make these every Christmas (and so does my uncle haha). Well, she got tired of me asking so she gave me the recipe and made my sister and I make it last Christmas. Now I have no excuse to beg for them, I have to make them on my own now. This recipe wraps up my family recipe themed streak of blog posts. But don't worry I will have more in the future, I just wanted to showcase some of my favorites back to back. These may be a bit time consuming but are so worth it! It's best to double the batch since they freeze well and will be gobbled up! This recipe will make 2 dozen balls. Also having a partner in the kitchen will also help. Someone to roll and dip the balls and someone to fry them up and take them out. These little 'kraut balls are delicious: crispy and crunchy on the outside - warm and creamy on the inside from the cream cheese. They are great for any party; like I said we usually have them around a holiday. Put that sauerkraut and sausage to good use and try these out because they are addictive, you'll just want to keep popping them in your mouth!

GRANDMA'S SAUERKRAUT BALLS

This is a family recipe that's been made for family gatherings since I was a kid. They're delicious, and usually go in the first five minutes of a party, causing dinner to be delayed because everyone is full. The great thing is that they can be made ahead of time and frozen, then reheated as needed.

MOM'S SAUERKRAUT BALLS

I got this recipe from my mom a long time ago, and they're one of my favorites. I use my food processor to chop the ham, corned beef and sauerkraut. The prep time includes allowing the balls to cool in the refrigerator for an hour, but doesn't allow for letting the mixture cool before rolling into balls. My recipe doesn't include how many sauerkraut balls this makes, so I'm going to guess. The number will vary depending on how big you make the sauerkraut balls.
