I posted a reply in this thread:

that it was always grilling season in Tx. and I decided to put some pictures where my text was.

Earlier in the week, my mom said she was coming over today to watch football and since I always cook for her, she requested sausage and sauerkraut. I was more than happy to oblige as I love them as well. Went to the store yesterday and picked up a pack of Johnsonville beer brats, a 24oz can of Budweiser, one VERY large "sweet" onion, disposable aluminum pan and a can of Libby brand "crispy sauerkraut". fired up enough coals in the chimney to fill a basket. while that was heating up, I used my mandolin slicer to finely slice about half of the onion. then I poked some holes in the brats with a knife. put the onion, beer, brats and a smidge of water in the pan. cooked indirect on buddy with lid thermo reading about 400 for a little over 90min. heated sauerkraut on the stove over low heat for about 30-45min. served sans-bun on a plate with a smidge of spicy brown mustard.

here's a few quick pics

about an hour in adding a few more coals to the basket

pretty simple, but very tasty!

Looks good.  What I like is kielbasa and sauerkraut.  That's a Pittsburgh area delicacy.  I also and some brown sugar to the kraut and black pepper no onions.
