Equipment

  • Non-reactive pan
  • Skewers (4)
  • Non-stick pan
  • Grill
  • Spoon (for testing cider reduction)

Ingredients
  

  • 64 oz. Apple Cider
  • 4 Bavarian Sausage Links
  • 4 tbl. Butter
  • 1 each Red Yellow and Orange Pepper
  • 1 Medium Yellow Onion
  • 4 Skewers

Instructions
 

  • Pour apple cider into a non-reactive pan. Boil, then simmer for 4-5 hours until reduced to 1 cup. Chill in the fridge.
    A non-reactive pan sits on the white marble cooktop, with apple cider boiling steadily over medium-high heat. The cider will reduce over 4-5 hours until it thickens enough to coat a spoon, at which point it will be cooled in the refrigerator.
  • Pierce sausages with a fork. Place them in a non-stick pan with 1 inch of water, boil, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Chop the peppers and onions into large pieces. Sauté them in butter until softened but not overcooked.
    On the white marble cooktop, red, yellow, and orange peppers are chopped into large pieces along with a medium yellow onion. Nearby, a skillet heats with 2 tablespoons of butter, ready to sauté the colorful vegetables until just tender.
  • Grill sausages for about 2 minutes per side until browned, then slice diagonally.
    The boiled sausages are placed on a grill over the white marble cooktop, with each side being lightly charred by the flames. This step adds a browned, smoky flavor as the sausages cook for about 2 minutes per side.
  • Assemble kabobs with sausage pieces, peppers, and onions.
    The boiled sausages are placed on a grill over the white marble cooktop, with each side being lightly charred by the flames. This step adds a browned, smoky flavor as the sausages cook for about 2 minutes per side.
  • Drizzle the finished kabobs with the apple cider reduction.
    The assembled kabobs rest on a platter on the white marble cooktop, finished with a drizzle of thick, tangy apple cider reduction for added flavor. The kabobs are now ready to be served and enjoyed.
