Wiener Gravy Recipes

WIENER GRAVY

Steps:

• 1. In a skillet, heat your oil or grease over medium heat. If you want it to taste mild, use oil. If you want it to have a stronger pork taste, use some bacon grease. I like to use a little of both. How much you use will depends on how many wieners you have. For 2 wieners I use about 1 T. of oil, 1 T. of bacon grease and 2 T. of flour (later in recipe). Slice wieners into coins into grease. Fry until desired crispness...I like mine about half crispy. Sprinkle flour on top of wieners and stir (should be the consistency of wet sand) and fry for a few minutes until flour starts to get a nice tan color. A little at a time while constantly stirring, add your liquid. If you want a stronger taste, use water. If you like a creamier taste, use milk, or some of both. How much will depend on how much grease you started with, but for what I've told you already will probably be around 2 cups. Cook and stir until bubbly and desired thickness. Season with salt and pepper. Serve over biscuits, toast or your favorite bread.

COCKTAIL WIENERS

• Stir barbeque sauce and grape jelly together in a slow cooker; add cocktail sausages and stir.

WIENERSCHNITZEL

Steps:

• Place each veal cutlet between two pieces of plastic wrap, and pound with the flat side of a meat mallet until about 1/4 inch thick. Dip in flour to coat.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the Parmesan cheese, eggs, parsley, salt, pepper, nutmeg and milk. Place bread crumbs on a plate. Dip each cutlet into the egg mixture, then press in the bread crumbs to coat. Place coated cutlets on a plate and refrigerate for 1 hour or overnight.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the breaded cutlets until browned on each side, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a serving platter, and pour the pan juices over them. Garnish with lemon slices.

SOUR WIENER GRAVY

Steps:

• In a large deep 12-inch skillet, combine the water, onion, salt and pepper, plus the gingersnaps. (You can also prepare this dish in a chicken fryer, with a lid, which is what I do).
• Stir gently until the gingersnaps have dissolved.
• Add the vinegar and sliced wieners.
• Heat over medium-low heat, until it almost boils and is somewhat thick.
• (When preparing this in a chicken fryer, I cook this over high heat; stirring frequently, until it comes to a boil and the gravy has thickened up, (in about 10 minutes) and after that, I lower the heat to a simmer, and cook/simmer the dish just a bit longer, for about 10-15 minutes longer).
• Serve over the hot-cooked mashed potatoes.
• *Note: When adding the gingersnap cookies, be sure to only use the store brands that I had suggested. Do not use home-baked cookies for this recipe.

WIENER OR JAEGER SCHNITZEL

Steps:

• Trim excess fat from veal or pork. Place cutlets between 2 sheets of waxed paper; flatten to one-eighth- to one-quarter-inch thickness. Combine flour and pepper in a shallow dish. Mix egg and buttermilk in another shallow dish. Coat cutlets with flour mixture, dredge in egg, then coat with bread crumbs. Let rest for 15 minutes.
• Heat large skillet on medium. Add oil; when hot, carefully add cutlets. Cook 4 to 5 minutes on each side or until browned. Transfer to a platter. Garnish Wiener schnitzel with lemon wedges and serve. Serve jaeger schnitzel with German gravy.
• To make German gravy: In a large saute pan, melt butter on medium-low heat until liquefied.
• Slowly whisk in flour, stirring constantly until the mixture resembles dough and is dark brown.
• Slowly add broth in small amounts, stirring constantly. Add salt, pepper, nutmeg, onion, tomato and mushrooms, and reduce heat to low.
• Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 7 minutes, or until vegetables are soft.
