Bratwurst Sandwich Recipe

My husband reminisces about these bratwurst sandwiches he often had growing up in Ukraine. I make them just like the ones he remembers: a hard roll (like a hoagie or kaiser roll), sauerkraut with carrots, raw onions, mayonnaise, ketchup, and yellow mustard on the side.

📝 Ingredients

• 6 Bread rolls ((any hard roll like hoagie, Kaiser, or Bolillo rolls) sliced lengthwise.)
• 6 Smoked Beef Bratwurst Links
• 1 1/4 cup sauerkraut
• 1/2 onion (finely diced)
• 6 tbsp mayonnaise
• Additional Toppings: ketchup, yellow mustard, grated carrots

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Warm bread rolls: Warm the bread rolls or toast in the oven until golden brown on the broil setting. I often skip this step.
2. 2Broil bratwursts in the oven: Line a sheet pan with foil and place all the bratwursts on top. Broil the bratwursts in the oven on all sides until nicely browned and sizzling (about 10-15 minutes).
3. 3Assemble bratwurst sandwiches: To assemble bratwurst sandwiches, spread one heaping tablespoon of mayonnaise onto each roll. Then add a bratwurst, drizzle the top with ketchup, and add mustard if desired. Top with a tablespoon of chopped raw onions, sauerkraut, and carrots**. Serve.
