This play on a traditional hot dog with sauerkraut is the perfect refresh on a classic. We swapped out the hot dog for bratwurst and the sauerkraut for a cabbage and grape salad. The outcome is a snappy bite that is as equally salty as it is bright and acidic.

Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons grainy mustard, plus more for the buns
- 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for the grill
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- Kosher salt
- 1 cup thinly sliced red cabbage
- 1/4 cup red grapes, thinly sliced
- 1/2 sweet onion, cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds
- 4 fully cooked bratwursts (about 3 ounces each)
- 4 hot dog buns
- Potato chips or pretzels, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat a grill to medium high. Whisk the mustard, vinegar, olive oil, sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Add the red cabbage and grapes; toss to coat.
- Oil the grill, then add the onion rounds and bratwursts. Cook the onion rounds, flipping halfway through, until softened and charred, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove to a cutting board. Cook the bratwursts, turning, until warmed through and charred all over, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove to a plate.
- Open the hot dog buns and add them to the grill, open-side down; grill until toasted, about 30 seconds. Flip and grill the outsides. Chop the grilled onion.
- Divide the hot dog buns among plates and spread with mustard. Fill with the bratwursts, slaw and grilled onion. Serve with potato chips or pretzels.
