Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 1 heaping cup fresh or frozen and thawed cranberries
  • 1/2 medium onion
  • 1 or 2 jalapenos
  • 1 medium apple
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 6 brats
  • olive oil for brushing
  • 32 ounce carton of beef broth
  • 6 buns (I love pretzel buns)

Instruction

  • Finely chop the cranberries and put them in a bowl.
  • Finely chop the onion and add to the bowl.
  • Finely mince the jalapenos. For more heat use the seeds, for less heat, discard them. Add to the bowl.
  • Peel and finely chop the apple, toss with the lemon juice to prevent browning. Add to the bowl.
  • Toss all the ingredients and refrigerate until needed.
  • For the brats, heat a grill pan over medium high heat until hot.
  • Prick the skin of the brats with the tip of a small knife. Brush with olive oil.
  • Place the brats on the hot grill and brown on all sides.
  • Put the broth in a slow cooker and turn on high. When the brats are browned, add them to the pot. Cook on high for 3-4 hours, then reduce heat to low until ready to serve.
  • Serve the brats on buns with lots of relish.
