Ingredients
- 1 package (about 14 Oz. Ring) Kielbasa
- 1 can (14 To 15 Oz. Size) Sauerkraut
- ½ Onion, Thinly Sliced
- 1 Tablespoon Spicy Brown Mustard
- 1 Tablespoon Yellow Mustard
- 1 pinch Salt
- 2 Tablespoons Beer
- ½ cups Extra Sharp Shredded Cheddar Cheese
- 16 whole Sandwich Stacker Pickles
- 8 whole Pretzel Buns, Either Store Bought Or See My TK Inbox For A Great Homemade Recipe
Preparation
First, boil the kielbasa. Fill a large skillet with deep sides with water and bring it to a boil. Quarter the kielbasa ring and cook it in the boiling water for 30 minutes. Remove to a cutting board when done and drain. Put the pan back on the heat and pour the sauerkraut in with its liquid. Let it heat up, then add the onion and mustards. Season the mixture with the pinch of salt, then pour in beer. Let the mixture cook for 3–5 minutes, until liquid is pretty much gone. Stir in cheddar cheese until it is melted, then take the pan off of the heat.
Meanwhile, lightly toast the pretzel buns.
Time to assemble! Cut each quarter of kielbasa in half horizontally to have 8 equal pieces. Then cut each of the pieces in half lengthwise to have a flat side to put on the sandwich. You’ll have 16 pieces total. Place two pieces of kielbasa flat side down on the bottom bun, then spoon a generous scoop of the sauerkraut mixture on the kielbasa. Top that with 2 sandwich stacker pickles, then close the sandwich. Repeat until they are all assembled and serve immediately! They are so perfect for the big game.
