Here's an easy recipe that's versatile, too. Serve the saucy brats over rice for one meal and have them on buns the next. For extra punch, add a splash of root beer concentrate to the sauce. -Pam Thompson, Girard, Illinois

I found that the brats were a little bit dry after cooking. I think I'll try cooking them for a shorter amount of time next time.

These brats are a bit on the sweet side, so if you don't like sweet brats, you might want to reduce the amount of brown sugar in the glaze.

I've also tried making these brats in the oven, and they turned out just as good as when I grilled them. It's a great option for when you don't have access to a grill.

I like to serve these brats with a side of sauerkraut and mashed potatoes. It's a classic combination that always hits the spot.

These brats are a great way to use up leftover root beer. I usually have a can or two left over after a party, and this is a great way to use it up.

I love the unique flavor that the root beer gives to these brats. It's a nice change from the usual grilled brats.

These root beer brats were a hit at my last cookout! The brats were juicy and flavorful, and the root beer glaze was the perfect finishing touch. I'll definitely be making these again.
