Brats & Beans

I ended up with extra Boston Baked Beans from my canning experiment. What goes better with beans than a brat(wurst)?

No one in my family is a big griller. Standing over open flames is just not our idea of a good time. I browned the brats I purchased at Costco in the cast iron. They were then placed in the crockpot and a bottle of beer were poured over them. I put the low setting on for about 5 hours.

No pictures of this super easy summer supper. Cooking brats in a crock pot is not overly exciting. I can report they were delicious served with a side of Boston baked beans. I also whipped up an easy three bean salad to round out the meal. A perfect summer meal that did not heat up the kitchen.
