"Oktoberfest, Super Bowl, tailgate party, or sports night - these chops take on the hops!"

• 4 boneless pork chops, about 3/4-inch thick, trimmed
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 2 Tbsp brown sugar, unpacked
• 2 tsp grated ginger root
• 1 cup beer
  

Place chops in a self-sealing plastic bag; add soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, and beer. Seal bag. Gently massage bag to evenly distribute marinade ingredients. Refrigerate 4 to 24 hours.

Prepare medium-hot coals in kettle-style grill. Remove chops from the marinade and discard marinade. Place chops on grill directly over coals. Cover grill and grill for 10 minutes, turning once.

• 6 uncooked bratwurst
• 1 (14-ounce) can sauerkraut
• 1 (12-ounce) can beer
• 6 hot dog buns, warmed

Puncture each bratwurst with a fork.

Drain sauerkraut, placing the liquid in a large resealable plastic storage bag; add the beer to the bag. Add brats to bag, and seal.

Cover and store drained sauerkraut in the refrigerator while brats marinate in the refrigerator for 3 to 6 hours.

Grill, broil, or fry brats for 10 to 15 minutes, or until no pink remains in the center. Serve with drained sauerkraut on warmed hot dog buns.
