Scrub a pound of red or yellow potatoes.

Cut the potatoes into chunks. I was using new potatoes, so I just halved or quartered them.

Stir the veggies together in the bottom of your crockpot.

Grab a package of bratwurst, and cut them all into 3 or 4 pieces. Place them on top of the veggies.

Now you’ll need one cup of good amber ale.

Pour the beer into a bowl and add 1/2 teaspoon of hot paprika.

Add in 1/2 teaspoon of caraway seeds.

Add in a teaspoon each of salt & pepper. Stir it all together and pour it over the contents of the crockpot.

Now you need a jar of sauerkraut – about 40 ounces.

Spread the contents (liquid and all) all over the top.

  1. I have this in the crockpot now and it’s starting to smell really good! My husband and I are both a German-Celt mix and love old-world home cooking. Happy October fest month!
