Crock Pot Reuben Brats are filled with sauerkraut, melted cheese, and topped with a homemade Thousand Island dressing. They are perfect for game day or an easy family meal.

The brats are slow-cooked for 7 hours along with sauerkraut, beer, and onion which gives them a big flavor boost. But it’s really the melted cheese and Thousand Island dressing that makes these Slow Cooked Reuben Brats a home run.

Brats taste wonderful on the grill, but I love how tender they cook up in the crock pot. This Crock Pot Reuben Brats recipe is great for those days when you don’t have time to fire up the grill and watch over it. Just add the brats to the crock pot in the morning and come evening, they’re ready to be stuffed in a roll with some cheese.
Bake or broil them a few minutes to melt the cheese and toast the bread. Then top them with some sauce and they are ready to go.
Note: You will need a 6-quart or larger slow cooker for this recipe.
