Oktoberfest Foil Packets
Servings: 4 servings
Juicy bratwursts, buttery potatoes, roasted cabbage, and sweet-tart apples—this foil packet dinner is an all-in-one Oktoberfest feast!
Ingredients
- ½ lbs Dutch Gold baby potatoes quartered
- 1 small yellow onion thinly sliced
- 1 cup red cabbage cut into chunks
- 1 small apple thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- ½ teaspoon caraway seeds optional
- 1 lb bratwurst
To Serve
- Parsley
- Whole-grain or Dijon mustard
Instructions
- Tear off four large sheets of heavy-duty foil (about 10-12 inches long).
- In a bowl, toss quartered potatoes, sliced onion, red cabbage, and sliced apple with olive oil, salt, pepper, and optional caraway seeds. Divide evenly between the two foil sheets.½ lbs Dutch Gold baby potatoes, 1 small yellow onion, 1 cup red cabbage, 1 small apple, 2 tablespoons olive oil, ½ teaspoon fine sea salt, ½ teaspoon pepper, ½ teaspoon caraway seeds
- Divide the brats between the two packets, placing them on top of the potato-cabbage mixture.1 lb bratwurst
- Top the packets with the remaining sheets of foil, and fold down in 1/2-inch folds to create a tight seal. Leave some room inside for steam circulation.
- Place packets directly on medium campfire coals or over medium heat on a grill. Cook for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until potatoes are tender and brats reach an internal temperature of 160°F (use an instant-read thermometer).
- Carefully open packets (watch for steam!), slice brats if desired, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and serve with mustard on the side.
Notes
On serving size: This recipe makes 4 servings but cooks best in two packets. Most brats come in 5 link packages, so plan on one brat per person, plus an extra for the hungriest person!
