Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • Bratwursts (4)
  • Hot dog buns (4)
  • Unsalted butter (2 tablespoons)
  • Onions (2 medium, thinly sliced)
  • Sauerkraut (1 cup, drained)
  • Mustard (to taste)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Grill the bratwursts for about 5 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and have nice grill marks.
  3. While the bratwursts are grilling, melt the unsalted butter in a skillet over medium heat.
  4. Add the sliced onions to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and caramelized, about 10 minutes.
  5. Once the bratwursts are done, place each one in a hot dog bun.
  6. Top each bratwurst with a generous amount of sauerkraut, a heap of caramelized onions, and a drizzle of mustard.
  7. Serve the bratwurst dogs immediately, perhaps alongside a refreshing potato salad or creamy coleslaw for a complete meal.
