Kraut Sauce

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Ball Park® brand. The opinions and text are all mine.

Before we moved last week, we hosted one more little backyard grilling party with neighborhood friends.  We had hot dogs with a boatload of toppings, Baked Beans, and Potato Salad.  Our Kraut Sauce was a huge hit with everyone.  We have always used Ball Park Hot dogs, but this was our first time trying out the Ball Park® Park’s Finest Premium Hot Dogs, and let me tell you, they are our new favorites!  They are 100% Beef and they contain no artificial preservatives, no artificial flavors, colors or fillers, and no nitrates.

Ball Park® Park’s Finest come in these amazing flavors: Signature Seasoned, Slow Cooked Chili, Jalapeno Cheddar, Slow Smoked Hickory and Cracked Dijon Mustard.  We tried and loved the Signature Seasoned and Slow Smoked Hickory and can’t wait to try the other new flavors!

Our favorite hot dog topping is something we call Kraut Sauce and it takes less than 5 minutes to prepare.  My mama used to make something like this when I was a kid, and I just loved it.  Every time we have it, I get asked for the recipe.  It is the perfect combination of Sweet & Tangy and is a wonderful accompaniment to the Ball Park® Park’s Finest Premium Hot Dogs.  Give this kraut sauce a try the next time you host a grilling party and watch it disappear.
