Ingredients

1 pound beer-flavored brats or pork sausages, cut into bite-sized slices
1/2 pound smoked bacon, cubed
2 onions, thinly sliced
3 carrots, chopped
4 large potatoes, peeled and sliced
salt and pepper to taste
1 teaspoon parsley, dried
1 cup beef stock
1 1/2 cups Guinness beer
1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions

Cook the sausages and bacon in a large skillet on medium heat for 10 minutes until browned on both sides. Spray or butter a 9x13-inch baking dish. Place 1/3 of the onions, carrots, potatoes and the meats in the baking dish, sprinkle with salt and pepper, if desired, and 1/3 of the parsley. Repeat layers two more times. Warm the beef stock in a medium saucepan over medium heat, add beer and cream. Do not boil. Once warm, pour over the casserole. Bake at 325 degrees F for 1½ hours until the vegetables are tender.
