SKILLET BRATS WITH BEER CARAMELIZED PEPPERS AND ONIONS



Skillet Brats with Beer Caramelized Peppers and Onions image

This recipe alludes to my time at culinary school. Right around the fall, it was standard to head to the Hudson River with my fellow comrades, drinking beer and cooking the brats on an open fire. By caramelizing the brats in the beer sauce, they just get better and better.

Time 50m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 large Vidalia onions, sliced thin
4 medium bell peppers, sliced thin
4 cloves garlic, minced
Kosher salt
2 pounds bratwurst, uncooked
12 ounces beer, stout or porter preferred
Hot Pepper Mustard, for serving, recipe follows
Pretzel rolls, for serving
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup honey
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
2 banana peppers, stems and seeds removed and chopped
1 yellow bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 small yellow onion, roughly chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
3 tablespoons stone-ground mustard
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the oil, then the onions, peppers and garlic. Season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they just begin to soften and the onions turn translucent, 5 to 10 minutes. Move the onions and peppers to the side of the skillet and add the bratwurst. Score the bratwurst with a knife on both sides. Add to the pan and sear, about 3 minutes per side. Add the beer to the skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook, turning the bratwurst and stirring the vegetables occasionally, until the beer reduces by half and the brats are cooked through to an internal temperature of 160 degrees F, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Serve with hot pepper mustard and pretzel rolls.
  • Whisk together the vinegar, water, honey, sugar, banana peppers, bell peppers, onions and garlic in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low/medium low and simmer until the peppers and onions are soft, about 5 minutes.
  • Transfer to a small food processor or blender and puree until very smooth. Add the mustard and puree until just incorporated. Season with salt. Transfer to a bowl and let cool completely, then refrigerate until well chilled, about 30 minutes.

Time 55m

Yield 8 Bratwursts, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 bratwursts (I like Johnsonville, but any brand will work)
8 hot dog buns (I like to get bakery style if possible)
1 green pepper, thin sliced in strips
1 red pepper, thin sliced in strips
1 yellow pepper, thin sliced in strips
1 large onion, cut in half and thin sliced
24 ounces dark beer, I prefer amber bock but use your favorite (2 bottles, 18 oz for the brats and vegetables and 6 oz for the sauerkraut)
3 garlic cloves, just smashed and skins removed no reason to cut
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 (15 ounce) can quality sauerkraut, drained well (you can also use a fresh bagged brand too)
8 tablespoons pepper relish (many quality store brands, I love it on burgers, dogs, brats, just about anything)
Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon kosher salt, to taste
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper, to taste
aluminum foil and tins for cooking the brats and sauerkraut

Steps:

  • Vegetables and Brats -- In a aluminum pan add the beer, peppers, onions and brats. Also add the red peppers, garlic and cover with foil and let simmer on medium/low heat on the grill for about 20 minutes. Remove the cover and cook 10 more minutes, then transfer the brats to the grill as you finish cooking the peppers. Without the foil on season with salt and pepper and let some of the liquid reduce. The brats lightly brown on the grill.
  • Sauerkraut -- Also when you put the vegetables and brats in the aluminum tin also add the sauerkraut to a smaller aluminum pan along with the remaining 6 oz of beer, cover with foil and set on the grill on indirect heat. You just want to heat it up is all. About 15 minutes. Right at the end of cooking, uncover and let some of the liquid evaporate.
  • Buns -- Remove the cooked brats and put back on top of the vegetables and recover also remove the sauerkraut. and keep covered. Now grill the buns lightly.
  • Dinner -- Now add a little dijon mustard to the bun, 1 tablespoon of the pepper relish, the brat, some of the peppers and onions and top with the kraut. Now that is a classic bratwurst.

Provided by Vicki in CT

Categories     Meat

Time 23m

Yield 6 brats, 3-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 bratwursts
24 ounces beer
1 -2 onion, sliced thinly
hot pepper (I used jarred Thai chiles sliced, but any hot pepper will do, to taste)
1 -2 teaspoon olive oil
hot dog bun
mustard

Steps:

  • Pour beer in large pot and bring to strong simmer. Pierce brats multiple times. Place in simmering beer. Simmer uncovered for 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile heat olive oil in skillet and saute onions until done. Stir in peppers.
  • Remove brats from simmering pot and add to skillet with onions. Brown slightly, about 2-3 minutes. Can add some beer if needed for moisture.
  • Serve brats, onions, peppers on rolls with mustard.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Brats: Opt for fresh, high-quality brats made with natural ingredients. Avoid brats with excessive fillers or preservatives.
  • Prepare the Grill: Ensure your grill is clean and preheated to medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, let the coals burn until they are white-hot and covered with ash.
  • Prick the Brats: Before grilling, use a fork to prick the brats all over. This will help the beer and seasonings penetrate the meat and prevent them from bursting.
  • Use Quality Beer: Select a beer that you enjoy drinking. The flavor of the beer will be imparted to the brats during grilling.
  • Marinate the Brats: Marinate the brats in the beer mixture for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will tenderize the meat and enhance the flavor.
  • Grill the Brats: Place the brats on the preheated grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally. Ensure they are cooked thoroughly, with an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
  • Add Vegetables: During the last few minutes of grilling, add sliced peppers and onions to the grill. Toss them occasionally to ensure even cooking.
  • Serve Immediately: Serve the grilled brats and vegetables hot off the grill, accompanied by your favorite condiments and sides.

Conclusion:

Grilled beer brats with peppers and onions are a delicious and easy-to-make summer meal that is perfect for backyard barbecues or casual gatherings.
