knackwurst

Plump garlic sausage

Knackwurst is a short, thick German sausage made from beef and pork, seasoned with garlic and spices.

The casing snaps when bitten into—the name comes from a German word meaning to crack or snap.

Also spelled knockwurst.

We grilled knackwurst and served them with sauerkraut.
