Unlayered Bratwurst Sauerkraut Bacon Bake

6 precooked bratwursts

1 medium onion

2 red apples

2 lbs sauerkraut, drained

6 slices uncooked bacon

Begin by greasing the bottom of a cake pan. Slice the bratwurst into thin coins, and layer the coins on the bottom of the pan. Next, slice the onion into thin slices, and layer on top. Slice the apple into very thin slices, and layer upon the onion. Sprinkle salt and sugar, lightly. Cover the ingredients with the sauerkraut as evenly as possible. Grind pepper over all. Lay the strips of bacon down over everything. Add more pepper, and lightly sprinkle with sugar. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bake for about 50 minutes; the bacon should be ultra-crispy. Break up bacon with knife and jumble entire mixture thoroughly. Return to oven for an additional 30 minutes, or until browned.  Remove from oven, and jumble one last time before serving. Serve with a slotted serving spoon to drain excess juices.
