Dublin Coddle (based on a recipe from The Complete Irish Pub
Cookbook, published by Love Food)
Cook one pound bacon until crisp. Cut strips in half, set aside
and reserve drippings.
Cut four brats or sausages in half and brown in the reserved
drippings. Set aside.
Cook one large, sliced onion in the same skillet until limp, but
not browned.
In an oven safe casserole, layer the onions, sausages, and bacon.
Add 6 peeled potatoes, cut into chunks. Sprinkle with black pepper.
Pour in 4 cups chicken or turkey stock. Add minced garlic (2-4
cloves), 2 tsp thyme and one large bay leaf. Cover tightly, bring to
a boil on the stove and transfer casserole to 300 degree oven and
simmer until potatoes are tender, 1 hour or more.
