Best Brats! Great flavor!
Summer is here! Along with summer goes brats! They just seem to go with summer picnics, bar-be-ques, family, and holiday gatherings. You may think that brats can’t get any better than just grilled. Well, try this way of fixing them and you’ll agree that these are the BEST BRATS!
Here is how to make the BEST BRATS you’ve ever tasted! ( I am not a beer drinker, but I do love these brats! The alcohol cooks off so don’t worry about serving to your guests that don’t drink. )
Ingredients:
Brats (your choice)
Onions (lots – Vidalia if you have them otherwise yellow onions will do)
Vegetable oil
Beer (your choice) I bought the cheapest one!
Directions:
Slice onions and sauté with vegetable oil or butter in pan until translucent. The amounts depend on how many brats you are making. Don’t skimp, be generous. For 4-6 brats, I would do at least 2-3 onions depending on size.
When onions are ready, place them in a saucepan or a pot large enough to easily hold as many brats as you are making. Add beer and bring to a boil.
Grill brats until browned, but just a little underdone inside.
Place grilled brats in saucepan with the onions and completely cover with beer. Let simmer on low until brats are completely cooked. At this point, leave brats in this brew until ready to serve.
When cooking for a large group, this method makes it easy to have brats done ahead of time. The crock pot works well for this, too. Keep at low temp ready to serve. Remove onions to place on top of the brats. Offer sauerkraut and other condiments on the side for guests to add to their brat. Now bite into the BEST BRATS you’ve tasted and enjoy!
Happy grilling!
