Prepare the onion marmalade ahead of time
to take along for a tailgate party or autumn picnic. Don’t
forget the brownies for dessert at halftime. Serve with a variety
of mustards, soft hoagie rolls to hold the brats and onion marmalade,
German potato salad and pickled vegetables.
Grilled Bratwurst
with Onion Marmalade
- 12 bratwurst
1/4 cup olive oil
3 large sweet onions, chopped
1/4 cup dry red wine
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon finely minced fresh thyme
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
- In a large deep skillet
heat oil over medium-high heat; add onions and sauté,
stirring frequently, until very soft, about 10 to15 minutes.
Add wine, vinegar and sugar, reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring
occasionally, until almost all of the liquid has evaporated,
about 10 minutes. The onions should be slightly caramelized.
Stir in thyme, salt and pepper. Remove from heat and cool. Keep
chilled until ready to serve.
- Prepare a medium-hot fire
in grill. Grill bratwurst directly over fire, turning, until
evenly browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from grill and serve
with marmalade.
Makes 6 to 8 servings.
