In honor of Octoberfest, we decided to develop a recipe for stuffed pretzels. And because it is a German celebration, I used bratwurst and sauerkraut to make the filling for these wonderfully chewy, hand-held mini meals. They are delicious as a game-day snack with a cold beer or for a weekend lunch, served with your favorite mustard as dipping sauce.
