"Hot Snot" Brats
Source: Mark Original
(Printable recipe)
Ingredients
1 to 2 lbs. bratwurst
About 16 oz. sauerkraut
2 to 4 whole onions, peeled
2 jalapeno peppers
About 2 T. olive oil
1 beer (cheap & domestic)
Directions
Cut jalapenos in half; scoop seeds into sauerkraut and mix well. (For less heat, skip this step.) Place sauerkraut mixture in bottom of pressure cooker. Place onions on top of sauerkraut and then lay bratwurst over the onions. Place jalapeno peppers on top. Drizzle in olive oil and then pour in beer. Seal pressure cooker lid. Cook for 8 minutes once the pressure cooker top is "dancing." Cut burner off and let pressure cooker cool down slowly.
NOTES:
- If you don't have a pressure cooker, I think you could simmer the ingredients in beer. Probably for about 30 minutes? We haven't tried it, but I think it would work.
- For a "Smoky Hot Snot Brats" version, use a chipotle pepper and some adobo sauce in place of the jalapenos. The smoky version is my favorite!

This looks soooo good! This is my kind of meal! I have always been interested in a pressure cooker but have been intimidated- he makes it seem do-able though. Love the way Mark staged the ingredients! What a treat to have a cooking night off too!
ReplyDeleteGreat to see you both having fun in the kitchen. Scott would love this recipe. . .I think I'll pass it along to him, as he is more likely to use the pressure cooker than I am.
ReplyDeleteGood job, Mark! You going to cook these for me sometime?
ReplyDeleteThe title reminds me of when I was growing up. There was/is a saying "It runs like hot snot" if we were talking about a supe'd up fast car.
ReplyDelete(Think about it...)
Personally I don't own a slow cooker, and if I did try this I'm certain I would need some sort of sauce over it for adding flavor. Beer alone just wouldn't cut it.
I love the recipe! So manly and simple. Just put it all in and leave it there until cooked.
