preparation
1. In a heavy-duty foil pan, arrange the bratwurst in a single layer. Peel the onion and trim off the ends. Cut the onion in half lengthwise, then cut each half lengthwise into 1/8-inch slices. Core and quarter the apple, and cut lengthwise into 1/8-inch slices. Scatter the onions, apples, and sauerkraut over the bratwurst.
2. In a medium bowl, mix the beer, mustard, and caraway seed, if using. Add the beer mixture to the pan. Grill over Direct Medium heat for about 20 minutes, turning the bratwurst 2 or 3 times. Remove the bratwurst from the pan but leave the pan where it is to continue to cook the sauerkraut mixture. Grill the bratwurst over Direct Medium heat until nicely browned, 2 to 3 minutes, turning once. Serve the bratwurst warm in hot dog buns with the sauerkraut mixture. Serve more mustard on top, if desired.
