Pressured Brat's

"My Mom and Dad gave me a 6QT pressure cooker for a birthday gift! Alas, the booklet did not have a recipe for brat's, so I went with the timing for steaks. I did not have beer or wine so it's not any authentic recipe, but pretty much posted for the timing of the Pressure cooking. I will use posted recipe's from other 'Zaar cooks and rate the recipes with notes that I've used a Pressure Cooker. The brat's came out very tender and not overcooked, still time to sear on a grill!"

directions

  • Place the steamer tray in the bottom of your Pressure Cooker.
  • Pour in water to the level of the top of the tray.
  • Shake in the Worcestershire Sauce, around so it blends with the water.
  • Place 5 bratwurst on top of the steamer tray.
  • Sprinkle garlic powder, onion flakes and black pepper over the brats.
  • Place the remaining 5 bratwurst on top of the first 5.
  • Sprinkle the garlic powder, onion flakes and pepper over top brats.
  • Place the Pressure Cooker lid on the pot, making sure it is seated and secured, and center the pot on your burner.
  • Put the regulator on the steam tube.
  • Turn your heat on medium high to high, according to your Pressure Cooker directions.
  • When the regulator starts rocking, (it takes a few minutes to build pressure, your indicator button will go up, some sputtering around cooker steam areas is normal) turn down your heat gradually until you get a slow/medium rock from your regulator.
  • Set your timer for 10 minutes.
  • When the timer goes off, turn off the heat and LIFT the cooker to a cool burner, if you use an electric stove. (Try to protect your Pressure Cooker's bottom from scratches).
  • Let the Pressure Cooker cool until no more steam escapes from the holes and the pressure indicator button drops.
  • When you open the lid, please be careful and lift it away from you. The bratwurst will be hot.
  • You may want to adjust the timing to about 8 minutes of pressure and then sear the bratwurst on the grill or in a cast iron skillet. The brats will be tender inside! Mmmm!

<p>I love all animals, but can't have them all! Cats are so easy to live with because they are like little gypsies (Notice my kitty, Jasper, in my pictures, can you spell SWEET and ADORABLE?). He really is the strong silent type! He's 16 years now, from our local Humane Society, a 2x repeat offender who picked us when he was 2ish, being his 3rd family, he's truly our charm! You can take cats anywhere you need to live. I adore dogs, especially large dogs and I love horses. <br /><br />*Photo credits: The crochet blanket Jasper is sleeping on is the Red Heart ripple pattern. My Mom used to do this one alot and my friend Paula does this pattern and helped me learn it. You can't see all the colors but there are a few! It's my first ripple blanket and I must admit, I really like it! I found my quilt online, through a catalog (I recieve alot of those), it reminds me of the quilts my Auntie taught me to make and was the inspiration for my ripple colors.~ <br /><br />LOVE southern food, it is soooo addictive and so satisfying to make and eat! I also love to make desserts, although we don't really eat that much dessert at home, so I make the desserts for our potlucks at work! Nobody gets to diet at a potluck! ~ <br /><br />I am pure Finn, 100% American. Both my parents are Finn, my Da has found the ship's manifest for his grandparents and my Mom's father came in 1905 as at the tender age of 5. My Dad loves family tree research so he does this for us! You can sure tell a Finn, but you can't tell 'em much!. So, Kissa is Finnish for cat, and, of course, they Mew, a deciding factor in what chef name I chose. ~ <br /><br />My Mom loves Southern cooking, from the time I could see into a Dutch Oven or Skillet this is how she taught me to cook! My Daddy made bread but I confess I am NO GOOD. Help! ~ <br /><br />I realized in my adult life that I had been raised old country and I have been fascinated with culture since. My Dad is retired Air Force. We've met alot of stranger's who have become friends from many regions, hence my love for diversity among people. I would say at least 85% of the men in my family have served this country with honor and Thank You to every brother and sister in the U.S. Military for your heart felt service! Nothing like a man in uniform!!! ~ <br />My son has served in the United States Navy and has been deployed several times. He is often thought of as older because of the maturity our military has to experience and become. I am so proud to be an American! And I am so proud we have a voluntary military! There is true devotion in the hearts of these men and women! ~ <br /><br />I have three daughters also. They are admireable young women who do what it takes to survive this world and retain the ever male-challenging feminine mystique while they are at it. My eldest daughter works for a Dentist, my middle daughter teaches Kindergarten and my youngest daughter works with home phone services. All of my children are adults, although no grandbabies as of this time. I don't mind because I need me time too! ~ <br /><br />Three chef's on Recipezaar that seem to cook like I like are MeanChef (now adopted out, but I saved recipes!), NurseDi and MissNezz. Lots of homestyle and Southern cooking! I have also enjoyed perusing Iowahorse's recipe's because there are so many for wild game and just plain good cooking! I have become a fan of Mama's Cookin too, great baby recipes, big and small! There are so many terrific cooks on 'Zaar that you can't just pick just one! I love collecting all the recipes and techniques! Thank you ALL for being here! <br /><br />How do I rate? Well, If I try and love it I go five and up and if I think it looks delish, I give a four, only because I want to try it and then I can change ratings. Really though, I look for recipes that stick to the insides and look like you want to eat them. I've noticed alot of visual eaters in the world of mine and they head right for home cookin'! I save drink recipes just for the fun of it I guess, because I would need to be a bartender to make all of them! <br /><br />I have been getting emails from the 'Zaar letting me know about reviews and realize I have not been enjoying it like I should! I have been so busy with family obligations that my cooking has been minimal and I miss being here! Tinkerbell has kindly adopted me and I need to add something to my page for that. That is so ironic in so many ways, Tinkerbell! :&gt;</p>
