HELP!!

[ACW3]

While visiting the OBX last week, we stopped at the Weeping Radish for a late lunch.  My wife ordered a sampler platter that included an apple brat.  Kind of sweet, but really tasty.  I bought a package to bring home.  I repackaged them and put the in the freezer.  Last night we opened a pack and served with some Bavarian sauerkraut.  Really good. 

My problem is that after looking in my charcuterie books and searching the web I can't seem to find a recipe that incorporates apples in the brats themselves.  Does anyone have a good apple brat recipe they would be willing to share?

Just run some apples thru with your brats..I saw them do that on tv. Granny smiths are a lil ion the tart side or a Fuji is sweeter but keeps a good texture when cooked.  Pam  .☆´¯`•.¸¸. ི♥ྀ.

What a great idea... My mom use to make pears and sausage in an iron skillet. It was a great use of the sand pears from our trees.  I never thought of putting it in casings!

How about this. Never tried it but I am just throwing it out there. Instead of apples being used why not change that up with apple brandy. I use wine all the time for dry sausage making to give it that special taste so this just might work.

This is for 5 lbs. of meat
Use 1 tsp mustard powder
2 1/2 TBS salt
1 tsp coarse black pepper
1/2 TBS sugar
1/2 TBS coriander
1/2 TBS crushed caraway seeds
a couple of crushed dried cayenne peppers
and make a slurry with one cup of Apple Brandy.

Add this to you meat and mix well. When you think its mixed, mix again.
