Basic Grilled Brats
Basic Grilled Brats
I get a lot of good advice from my friends and this is probably the best way to enjoy brats (Bratwurst or Bierwurst) is to grill them, then simmer in beer, unless you are in Wisconsin then you would simmer them in beer then grill them. I have made brats like this several times and they are very good!
Ingredients
- 1 package brats, 270 grams, pack of 4, Bratwurst or Bierwurst
- 1 onion, cut into 6 or 8 wedges
- 1 bell pepper, optional, cut into strips
- 1 can beer
Instructions
- Light your grill, charcoal (what I use) or gas if you have that. Setup for indirect grilling. Mr. Sausage is the brand of brats I use.
- Grill the brats with indirect heat, and place a metal baking pan (I use a bread pan) on the grill as well, add the beer and onion to the pan, and bell pepper if using that and let that heat while the brats cook. Close the grill and cook the brats, turn them occasionally, for about 20 minutes. Then take the brats and put them into the pan and let them simmer for about 20-30 minutes with the lid closed. Serve as is with sides of your choice or on buns with spicy mustard.
Notes
I use Mr. Sausage brand bratwurst and bierwurst. One package, 4 sausages, is 270 grams and the cost is 129 Baht. For two servings, this is about $1.89 per serving. High cost but very good for a once in a while meal.
