1889.1a couple of ways.....ISLNDS::COLELLAWhere deviation is the norm......Mon Jul 24 1989 11:365
    My mom fries them in a little margarine, just like you would with hot
    dogs or else BBQ's them on the grill.  They eat 'em with sauerkraut and
    potato pancakes. 
    
    Good luck!

    Boil them in beer, and serve with a selection of mustards, brown
    bread and butter, pickles, ans sauerkraut.
1889.3an idea or twoNOVA::FISHERRdb/VMS DinosaurTue Jul 25 1989 09:4014
    Uns ist gut mit German potato salad, too.
    
    Really they are no more than fat hot dogs.  Cook like hot
    dogs or kielbasa.  If you want to make it special, serve with German
    type things: sauerkraut, German Potato Salad -- there must be a recipe
    for that in here somewhere or you can buy a pint or two of in in most
    supermarket delis.  Some kind of German mustard is good though most
    will do.  Steam with the sauerkraut to get the flavor boiled in.
    
    Serve with a few steins of German Bier, decorate the house with
    some blue and white checkered flags and play accordian music and
    King Ludwig might visit.

1889.5minimal recipe, will check....ISLNDS::COLELLAWhere deviation is the norm......Wed Jul 26 1989 15:5711
    I can give you the basics of the potato pancake recipe.  It's simply
    shredded potatoes and onions (use a food processor).  Salt and pepper
    that mixture (it will get juicy from the shredded potato), scoop it out
    by spoonfuls and fry in a little vegetable oil.  You'll have to flatten
    out the spoonfuls a little, but the pancakes should be about 1/4""
    thick and 3 inches in diameter.
    
    I'll check with mom tonight and to see if there's more to it than
    this........

    My Mom just used to boil them.  I don't remember them tasting
    salty.
    
1889.10Aha! Combine the cooking methods....BOOKIE::AITELEveryone's entitled to my opinion.Thu Jul 27 1989 11:136
    Maybe you could boil them and then grill them.  The boiling would
    get most of the salt out, especially if you split them before
    boiling.  Easier to cut them when they're cold, anyhow, so you
    won't burn your hands on hot boiled sausages!
