Sausage and Pretzels

On Saturday I made a dinner I love, grilled sausages with homemade pretzels and cabbage. I got herb and garlic pork sausages from WF, and only slightly overcooked them. I tried baking the pretzels on the grill, and you can see they sort of puffed up and got deformed, but they were still really good, especially with the yellow mustard. I braised purple cabbage, granny smith apple, and red onion in OJ (didn't have apple juice) with lots of caraway. Craig didn't like the cabbage as much as I did, he thought it was too mild, but I really liked it as a counterpoint to the strong salty sausage and mustard, and it's the closest thing to sauerkraut I'll probably ever get him to eat. We drank a beer Chris gave Craig, the Allagash 4er, which was malty and wonderful and went perfectly with the meal. I could eat this every weekend.
