Heres how to cook great grilled Polish sausage with sauerkraut and onions!
Grill, then simmer with beer and caraway seeds for more flavor.
Its a perfect summer BBQ staple.

Attention sausage and sauerkraut lovers!
I think it’s time we had our own fan club, don’t you?
I nominate my Minnesota-raised father as the honorary chairman of that club.
Elise Bauer
He’s all over it.
From what I understand, this dish is a summer standby in Wisconsin and Minnesota.
Dad thinks it’s pretty common in Nebraska too.

I’m just happy it made its way to Northern California.
My patio, to be specific.
Place sausages on the heated grill and allow them to brown well.
Elise Bauer
(They may break open anyway, but they’ll break less if you cook them slowly.)
Stir in the celery and caraway seeds and salt.
Bring to a simmer.

(This may require covering the grill.)
Paint the sliced onion with the vegetable oil and grill on direct heat.
Or, you might cut the onions in halves or quarters and grill them that way.
Then slice them and add them to the beer.
Simmer (not boil) for 30 minutes to 2 hours before serving.
Cut the sausages into serving sized pieces before serving.
Serve as is in a bowl or on a plate, or in a sandwich roll.
Serve with mustard on the side.
