Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Sauté the Onions

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Slice the onion and sauté in the hot oil until they are soft and caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Cook the Sausages

    In the same skillet, add the bratwurst or German sausages and cook them according to package instructions, turning occasionally until browned and cooked through.

  3. 3

    Heat the Sauerkraut

    While the sausages are cooking, heat the sauerkraut in a small pot over medium heat until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally.

  4. 4

    Assemble the German Shepherd

    Place a cooked sausage in each bun. Top with sautéed onions, a generous scoop of sauerkraut, and a tablespoon of mustard. Serve immediately.
