Beer for Dinner

"To make a Brew Dog, gently cook your hot dog in beer, lay each one in a warm toasted bun, then smother the dog in Sauerkraut With Caraway. Top off this wiener with a squirt of hot mustard."

• 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
• 1 pound sauerkraut
• 1 cup beer

Put caraway seeds into a nonreactive saucepan and heat over medium low until fragrant. Add sauerkraut and beer and stir to combine. Cook sauerkraut until bubbling hot. Makes 4 cups.

• 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.
