Sauerkraut and Weenies Recipe

SauerKraut and Weenies

Here is a recipe for Sauerkraut and Weenies that belongs in the category of, “It’s Not Really a Recipe”.  We have made this in my family for 1,000 years.  Or at least all of my life.

Here’s how I make it:

This is totally up to what I have on hand.  Most of the time I use regular hot dog weenies, but on this day I only had smoked sausages.  Same goes for the sauerkraut.  Sometimes I use canned, glass jarred, or like today the bagged stuff.  Sauerkraut is good!

Chop your weenies into rounds…..

Pour them into a frying pan…..

Stir as they cook until they are the desired doneness.  This is perfect for Denton, but I like mine more browned like you’ll see below, but it DOES discolor your sauerkraut later…..Sad face from Denton, he likes his sauerkraut to stay white….

Put in as much sauerkraut as you want I usually just cover the weenies…..

Simmer together until everything is heated…..

And enjoy!  Preferably with soup beans and salmon….. Here’s the handy dandy printable.
