This is our family's way of making beer brats! We love them this way and they are even better re-grilled the next day! Depending on how much you drink while you are prepping you may need more or less beer!

Categories     Pork

Time 2h30m

Yield 5 brats, 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 (12 ounce) cans beer
5 uncooked bratwursts (we like Johnsonville best)
1/8 cup yellow mustard
1/8 cup stone ground mustard
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 medium onion, cut into rings about 1/3 of an inch thick
sauerkraut (optional)
1 large red bell pepper (cut in rings the same size as the onions)
5 hot dog buns or 5 hoagie rolls

Steps:

  • Get a large grill safe dish (we use the reynolds disposable roasters), place the onions, red bell peppers (if using) and brats in the bottom.
  • Mix the two mustards, Worcestershire sauce and brown sugar together and dump this mixture over the brats and onions etc.
  • Stir until the onions and brats are evenly coated.
  • Pour enough beer into the dish to cover the brats and onion, then give it a slight stir to mix the mustard mixture with the beer.
  • Put in fridge and let sit at least 30 minutes, but an hour or two is much better. When marinating time is up, remove and let come to room temperature.
  • Pre heat your grill to medium high heat.
  • Place the container directly on the grate and cook the brats in the beer mixture for 10-15 minutes, until the beer is steamy and hot. Remove from heat. But do not discard yet.
  • Turn the grill down to medium heat (or however you like your brats grilled).
  • Remove the onions and brats from the beer mixture. Then place the brats on one side of the grill and the onions on the other.
  • Grill brats and onions, turning occasionally until done. Each time you turn, baste with the remaining beer mixture. The onions should be somewhat caramelized and soft.
  • Discard the remaining beer mixture and serve on buns or hoagies with sauerkraut and other condiments as desired.

BEARS BRAT

Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 8 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cans lager or pilsner beer
3 medium Granny Smith apples, peeled and sliced
1 onion, sliced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
8 fresh bratwurst
1/2 cup stone-ground mustard
1 to 2 tablespoon pickled jalapenos, chopped
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
8 pretzel rolls
Caramelized Onions, recipe follows
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 medium yellow onions, sliced thin
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the bratwurst: Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
  • Bring the beer to a simmer in a pot with the apples, sliced onions, salt and pepper. Add in the brats and simmer, turning once, until cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes. Strain out the solids and reserve 1 cup of the beer base.
  • Brown the sausages on the grill to add color and texture, 5 to 6 minutes.
  • For the beer mushtard: Mix the mustard, jalapenos, mayonnaise and 1 to 2 tablespoons of the reserved beer base in a bowl. Adjust the thickness with more beer base if necessary.
  • For the sandwich build, place the grilled brats on the pretzel buns, followed by some beer mushtard and Caramelized Onions.
  • Add the oil and sliced onions to a skillet and stir to combine. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook over medium-low heat, undisturbed, until the bottoms of the onions begin to caramelize, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir only once and keep for another 5 minutes undisturbed. Once the onions are golden and soft, set aside. (Add water if necessary to help deglaze the pan throughout the cooking process.)
