Servings and Ingredients
Ingredients
Serves 4
| Quantity | Ingredient | Add |
|---|---|---|
| 1 recipe Caramelized Onions | ||
| 8 (4 oz each) bratwurst patties | ||
| 8 slice(s) Hy-Vee Muenster and/or aged Cheddar cheese | ||
| 4 Hy-Vee Bakery pretzel buns | ||
| 4 tbsp. cranberry mustard or coarse ground mustard | ||
| 1 medium apple, cored and thinly sliced | ||
| 2 c. arugula | ||
| Apple vinaigrette dressing, optional |
Directions
- Prepare Caramelized Onions.
- Prepare a charcoal or gas grill for direct cooking over medium heat.
- Grill patties on a well-greased rack for 10 to 12 minutes or until internal temperature of patties are 160 degrees, turning once halfway through. During the last 2 minutes of grilling, top patties with cheese and place buns, cut sides down, directly over heat to toast. Remove from grill; let patties rest for 5 minutes.
- Spread bun bottoms with mustard. Layer with two cheese-topped patties, Caramelized Onions, apple slices and arugula. If desired, drizzle with dressing. Add bun tops.
- CARAMELIZED ONIONS: In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons Hy-Vee butter over medium-low heat. Add 2 large, thinly sliced sweet onions (such as Vidalia or Walla Walla) and 2 tablespoons Hy-Vee sugar to skillet. Cook for 30 minutes or until onions are well-browned, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat. Add 1/4 cup brandy or Hy-Vee apple juice. Bring mixture to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, until onions are glazed.
