03/16/2015
My friend Erica Allen just became FAMOUS. If you look at the April edition of Taste of Home magazine, you will find her recipe for Cuban-Style Pork Chops right inside! I hope you will check it out because Erica is an awesome cook. She very graciously offered me this recipe which includes basically all my favorite food groups: kielbasa, garlic, sauerkraut and of course BEER.
I love beer.
So without further ado... here's Famous Erica's recipe for:
Garlic, Beer, Sauerkraut and Kielbasa Sandwiches 
- 1 package kielbasa cut in 2 inch pieces then split
- 2 Tbsp minced garlic
- 1 can budweiser or any type but not light
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- Can sauerkraut
- 2 tsp soy sauce
- 1 1/2 tsp brown sugar
- Long rolls
- Mustard for condiment
Place cut kielbasa in pan cut side down. Pour on 1/4 of the beer. Add garlic and brown over med heat uncovered. Add paprika and pepper. Add another 1/4 of beer when evaporated. Add soy sauce and sauerkraut. Flip kielbasa pieces. Add another 1/4 of beer when evaporated. Let cook on low. Sprinkle 1 1/2 tsp brown sugar and mix in. Continue on med heat for 15 min or until brown. Transfer to oven to brown well at 350° for 15 min. Add last bit of beer can , if dry.
Can't wait to try it, Erica! Thanks for the recipe!
