Ingredients for Beer Bratwurst And Cabbage

  • Bratwurst
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • Green Bell Pepper
  • 4 cups shredded green cabbage
  • Diced Tomatoes
  • 1 teaspoon salt

How to Make Beer Bratwurst And Cabbage

  1. Pierce several holes in 1 lb of beer bratwurst using a fork. Microwave the bratwurst in its package for 4 minutes to partially cook.
  2. Remove from microwave and let cool slightly. Slice the bratwurst into 1/2-inch thick rounds and set aside.
  3. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion (chopped), 1 green bell pepper (chopped), and 4 cups of shredded green cabbage.
  4. Cover the pot and cook for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender-crisp.
  5. Add the sliced bratwurst, 1 (14.5 ounce) can of diced tomatoes (undrained), 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper to the pot.
  6. Cook for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the bratwurst is heated through and the flavors have melded.
  7. Serve hot and enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
