Hope you had a good Memorial Day Weekend. God bless our fallen soldiers and their families. Beth and I saw the Little River Band at Seven Feathers in Canyonville on Saturday night. Great show! Highly recommend! Thanks Gary and Candis! Love you two!
Oven Braised Beer Brats with Caramelized Onions & Apples
6 bratwurst sausages
2 apples (Honey-crisp or Gala), thinly sliced
1 bottle (12 oz) beer
2 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp brown sugar
Kosher salt and fresh-ground pepper, to taste
Whole grain mustard and rolls, for serving
Preheat oven to 400°. Line a baking pan with foil for easy cleanup.
In a skillet, add olive oil over low-med heat. Add onions and cook for 10 minutes until softened. Stir in butter, brown sugar and apples; cook 4 more minutes.
Spread the onion-apple mixture in the foil-lined pan. Nestle bratwursts on top.
Pour beer evenly into the pan. Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes.
Remove foil and bake an additional 20 minutes, flipping brats once until browned and beer is mostly reduced.
