Literally garnished cabbage, this classic Alsatian dish features mellow sauerkraut garnished indeed---with a wealth of smoked meats. Serve an Alsatian white wine with this dish, and lightly buttered rye bread or pumpernickle.
In a large Dutch oven, or other kettle with lid, slowly cook bacon with carrots and onion over medium heat, stirring occasionally, about 8-10 minutes. Place parsley, bay leaves, peppercorns, juniper berries and cloves in cheesecloth bag or large tea strainer. Add to pot along with sauerkraut, wine and broth. Bring to a boil; cover and simmer for 1 hour. Add pork loin, ham, sausage, and bratwurst; simmer another hour. Add apples and simmer for 20 minutes more. Serve immediately or refrigerate overnight and reheat to serve. Serves 10

apart from the fact that bratwurst isn't actually an alsatian dish...
anyway, here's another one:
Bratwurst Torte mit Senfkruste (Bratwurst (cake) with mustard crust)
250 g flour Salt, caraway 125 g butter 3 eggs a handfull of chopped chives 150 g crème fraîche 4 Tbs Mustard (best a coarse one) some flour & butter ca. 600g fresh Bratwurst (best in one piece not several sausages!)
Mix up the flour with the salt and caraway and add the butter and one egg. Knead well until it is a smooth dough. Put into the fridge for 30 minutes.
Heat oven on 200°C.
For the "Guss" (the stuff that goes on top) mix up Crème fraîche, mustard and the 2 eggs and add the chives.
On a slightly floured surface roll out the dough and put into a springform (ca: 26cm). Pull up the rim and prod a bit with a fork. form the Bratwurst to a snail (?) and lay onto the dough. Pour the "Guss" over it.
Bake in a pre-heated oven for ca. 40 minutes until gold-brown.

To be honest with you I don't remember where I got that recipe from... it has been in my cookbook for a long time, along with the little bit of history with it.
600 g Bratwurst 1 kg Leek 1 red pepper 150 g cheese (gouda, mediumold) 375 ml vegetable stock 50 g butter 30 g flour
Fry the Bratwurst and then cut into slices. Wash and cut the leek, dice the pepper and cook both int he stock for about 8minutes (one after the other). Do not pour the stock away after that! Melt butter, add flour and let it cook for a bit, then pour in the stock and let it boil for a bit. Then add the grated cheese and don't boil andmore. Fill a casserole dish with some of the leek, then half of the pepper, pour in half of the sauce. Then layer sausage slices and leek, stray in pepper on the top and pour the rest of the cheesesauce over it. Bake in the pre-heated oven at 200°C for 20 minutes with closed lid, then take off the lid and let it brown for another 5 minutes at 225°C.
8 big potaotes 2 Tbs Oil Salt Majoran 250 g Bratwurst - Filling 1 big onion 1/2 Tsp caraway
Grate the raw potatoes. slice the onions into rings and fry in a pan in the oil until soft. add the Bratwurst-filling into it and stir into little pieces. Add the potatoes, salt and majoran and fry for about 3-5 minutes. Oil a casserole dish and pre-heat the oven on 200°C. Fill the stuff in the pan into the casseroledish and stray some caraway over it (I hate that stuff, I don't add it to anything) and bake for 30 minutes.
Of course, when you eat it drink a cold beer to it.
