Beer-Battered Brat Lollipops with Spicy Kraut Mustard
- 1 package (19 Oz Size) Johnsonville Brats
- 4 cups Peanut Or Canola Oil For Frying
- 1/4 whole Egg White
- 1 cup All Purpose Flour, Sifted
- 1 cup Plus 2 Tablespoons Of Ale (I Used Sierra Nevada Pale Ale)
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoon Seasoned Salt
- 2 Tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1/4 cups Spicy Brown Mustard
- 1/4 cups Yellow Mustard
- 1/4 cups Sauerkraut, Undrained
- 1/4 cups Applesauce
- Wooden Skewers, For The Pops
- Start your grill and prepare for indirect cooking over medium heat (325-350 degrees F).
- Grill the brats over indirect heat for about 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F. Remove the sausages from the grill to a platter and let them cool.
- Heat the frying oil in a large heavy pot (I recommend cast iron) to 360 degrees F.
- In a medium mixing bowl beat the egg white to light peaks.
- Add the flour, ale, baking powder and seasoned salt.
- Whisk to combine and set aside.
- When the oil is ready, slice each of the warm sausages into five equally sized pieces and toss them with the cornstarch in a medium bowl.
- Working in batches of five skewers at a time, use a skewer to remove a piece of sausage from the cornstarch, knocking off the excess.
- Coat each piece completely in the beer batter and carefully drop it into the oil, waiting a few seconds in between before adding the next.
- Fry the brats until the batter is golden brown.
- Remove to a wire rack inside a lipped sheet pan thats lined with several layers of paper towels.
- Repeat with the remaining sausages.
- Combine both mustards, the sauerkraut and applesauce in a small bowl.
- Blend well with an immersion blender until smooth.
- Serve the sausage on small skewers with the mustard for dipping.
- Enjoy!
