BEER-SIMMERED BRATWURST

"Steaming the bratwurst allows the beer and spices to permeate the meat. You get the crusty exterior from finishing them on the grill," says Bobby.

BEER-SIMMERED BRATS WITH CHEESE SAUCE RECIPE - (4.4/5)



BEER-SIMMERED BRATS WITH CHEESE SAUCE Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by Lynnab3

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1-1/2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup milk
2 teaspoons country-style Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese (2 ounces)
1/2 cup grated Gruyère cheese (2 ounces)
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano® cheese
2 bottles (each 12 fluid ounces) Belgian-style wheat beer or ale
2 medium red onions, each cut in half and thinly sliced
1 tablespoon country-style Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
6 fresh bratwurst, pierced several times with a fork
6 submarine sandwich buns, split

Steps:

  • Prepare the grill for direct and indirect cooking over high heat (450° to 550°F). In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Add the flour and cook until the mixture turns a light beige color, about 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Whisk in the milk, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce and cook until the mixture thickens, about 2 minutes, whisking occasionally. Add the three cheeses and stir until they are melted. Set aside and reheat gently just before serving. Brush the cooking grates clean. In a large disposable foil pan combine the beer, onions, mustard, and sugar and then add the brats. Place the pan over direct high heat, close the lid, and bring the liquid to a simmer. Simmer until the brats are evenly colored and no longer look raw, about 20 minutes, turning occasionally. If the liquid starts to boil, temporarily move the pan over indirect heat to prevent the bratwurst from splitting open. Lower the grill's temperature to medium heat (350° to 450°F). Transfer the brats to a small disposable foil pan and place the pan over indirect heat. Strain the onions through a colander into the pan with the brats. Put the onions back in their original pan and place the pan over direct medium heat. Close the lid and cook until the onions are very tender, about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. After the onions have cooked for about 2 minutes, remove the brats from the liquid, discard the liquid, and grill the brats over direct medium heat until browned, about 6 minutes, turning occasionally. During the last minute of grilling time, toast the buns, cut side down, over direct heat. Place each brat inside a bun and then top with onions. Spoon the sauce over the onions or serve the sauce on the side.

Provided by HeidiSue

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 55m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 large onions, peeled & thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, crushed
3 lbs bratwursts, pricked with a fork (Bobby uses pre-cooked brats, but we get more flavor out of using uncooked, Johnsonville is our favor)
6 (12 ounce) bottles dark beer (we always use Sierra Nevada Pale Ale)
2 cups water
1 teaspoon coriander seed
1 teaspoon caraway seed
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 piece fresh ginger, peeled & chopped (1-inch)
bun, of your choice (or not)
German mustard, of your choice (we prefer Honey Spice mustard)
pickled beets, chopped (optional) or sauteed onion (optional)

Steps:

  • Arrange onion slices and garlic along the bottom of a medium stockpot.
  • Place bratwurst on top and then add the beer, water, coriander, caraway, mustard seeds and ginger.
  • Fire up the grill.
  • Bring to a simmer over the grill grates or on a burner.
  • We do it on the stove top, but you still need the grill to finish cooking the brats.
  • Simmer the sausage in the mixture for about 10 minutes.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and let the bratwursts sit in the liquid for 10 more minutes.
  • Remove the sausages with tongs onto a platter.
  • Place the bratwursts on the grill and grill until cooked through (about 10-15 minutes).

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality bratwurst: Look for brats made with fresh, local ingredients and avoid brands that contain fillers or preservatives.
  • Use a variety of beers: Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of beers, from light lagers to dark stouts. The flavor of the beer will impart a unique flavor to the brats.
  • Simmer the brats on low heat: This will help to ensure that the brats cook evenly and don't dry out.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Make sure there is enough space in the pan for the brats to cook without steaming.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Beer-simmered brats are great with a variety of sides, such as sauerkraut, potato salad, or roasted vegetables.
