Title: Octoberfest sandwich!
Post by: THROUGH THE MUD BBQ TEAM on October 31, 2015, 01:26:10 PM
Our local German Club serves a sandwich called 'The Octoberfest'.

Since October is nearly over, and I haven't had one of these in a couple weeks, I thought I'd try making some for the family. 

This sandwich has 5 ingredients that I would absolutely NEVER try putting into the same dish. But somehow all the different flavors blend very well together,  and each ingredient compliments the next.

If you are looking for something new, and are adventurous enough to try this recipe,  I'm sure you will not be disappointed!

Here is the recipe :

On a Pretzel roll,
Spicy Dijon Mustard
Swiss Cheese
Bratwurst
Apple pie filling
Sauerkraut

Man...I don't know. Apple pie filling sounds about as German as what? Everclear?

Ok...maybe if you served this with a couple two three shots of Everclear though. Hey! I'm back in! And the sausage and bier look beautiful.

I just Googled "German Apple Pie." So I will take all the above back.

Jon!

My mistake.  The German Club uses 'caramelized apples'. I changed the recipe to my apple pie filling as I thought it might add more depth of flavor.  Is either authentic German?  Maybe. Maybe not. I could ask the chef.

Either way,  I thought this was a great sandwich unlike anything I've had elsewhere. 

Maybe we could discuss this more over some shots of Jager instead of Everclear!

I would have a hard time with either of those drinks; I'll bring the beer and try the sandwich!

Before I saw the pic I thought you would form a bratwurst patty and put it on a burger bun. Kraut, apples, and pork is always a winner in my book!
