ON WISCONSIN! CASSEROLE



On Wisconsin! Casserole image

My DH wanted brats but didn't want them in buns, or even done hash style with potatoes like we frequently do. He asked can you pu them in a casserole with maybe a little cheese & onion. This is what came out if that. You get nice beer-cheese sauce on brats, onions, & pasta to hold it all together. All the best of Wisconsin: beer- cheese - brats

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb bratwurst, cooked & cooled
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large sweet onion, halved, then sliced in julienne strips
8 ounces penne pasta
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons flour
2 (12 ounce) bottles beer, I recommend a craft beer, I used pale ale (room temperature)
4 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
2 ounces swiss cheese, shredded
fresh ground pepper
1 tablespoon mustard, stone ground or spicy brown
1/4 cup French-fried onions

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for pasta. Cook pasta until l dente, drain.
  • While boiling water & cooking pasta, melt 1T butter & 1T olive oil together over medium high heat. Add onions & a pinch of salt. Caramelize until very golden & soft. Add to large bowl.
  • Slice brats while onions carmelize, add to large bowl.
  • In same pan as onions, melt 3T butter, add flour to make a roux, cook 1 minutes. Gently stir in 2 cups of beer, continue stirring until roux dissolves, bring to a simmer & cook 1-2 minutes until thickened & flour taste cooks out. Recede heat, gradually add cheeses stirring until melted & smooth. Add mustard & pepper to taste. Stir in extra beer as needed to thin sauce, should be a medium consistency, thin enough to pour smoothly, not thick & gloppy.
  • Stir drained pasta in with brats & onions, add most of sauce & toss to coat. Pour into a casserole dish, top with remaining sauce. Can be refrigerated @ this point to bake off later.
  • If refrigerated, warm on counter for an hour before baking.

Time 25m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (16 ounce) package elbow macaroni
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup shredded provolone cheese
½ cup ricotta cheese
½ cup sour cream
½ cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
½ teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
½ teaspoon garlic salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add macaroni, and cook until tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain.
  • In a large bowl, toss together the mozzarella cheese, Swiss cheese, Parmesan cheese and Provolone cheese. Remove about 1/2 cup for topping and set aside. In a separate bowl, stir together the ricotta cheese, sour cream and heavy cream. Season with parsley, Italian seasoning and garlic salt.
  • Pour the ricotta cheese mixture and drained macaroni into the bowl with the cheeses and toss lightly. Do not mix too thoroughly, it's better left messy. Pour into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the reserved cheese over the top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, about 10 minutes, then turn the oven to broil. Broil for about 5 minutes to brown the top.
