Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Prepare the Roaster: Place the bratwurst sausages in the bottom of a large electric covered roaster (such as a Nesco). (5 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

Layer Ingredients: Layer the sliced apples, onions, and brown sugar over the brats, in that order. Pour the water over the top to help create a delicious braising liquid. (10 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Cook the Brats: Cover the roaster and cook the brats at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 3 hours, or according to the manufacturer's instructions for your roaster. The brats should appear dark and beautifully candied when they are ready. (180 minutes)

04

Step
3 hrs

Serve: Once cooked, remove from the roaster, and serve immediately.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of apple cider vinegar to the roaster before cooking.
Feel free to experiment with different types of apples, such as Honeycrisp or Granny Smith, to customize the sweetness and tartness of the dish.
These brats are fantastic served on buns with your favorite condiments, or alongside creamy mashed potatoes and roasted vegetables.
