One method of cooking bratwurst we have seen has you actually steaming the brats in beer and then finishing on the grill. In our recipe we skip the initial steam bath and simply bathe the brats in beer while they are on the grill.

Ingredients

Servings

1

bratwurst

4

oz

beer of your choice

1

hoagie rolls

toppings of your choice

Directions

Step 1

Preheat grill to medium high

Step 2

Remove brats from package and place on grill

Step 3

Turn/roll occasionally allowing brats to gently brown

Step 4

Bathe brats on grill with half of the beer about 10 minutes into the cook

Step 5

When brats begin to split roll them split side up and pour more beer into the opening. Enjoy the aroma!

Step 6

Cook for another 5 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 160F

Step 7

Toast hoagie rolls lightly on grill while brats are finishing up

Step 8

Finish brats with second half of beer. Brats should have the casing starting to break open and little geysers of brat juice should be spewing out

    Sounds good, but I like to bathe my brats in beer. Pour beer into roasting pan and add grilled brats, (sautéed) peppers and onions

    Some of the beer makes it past the grates but the vast majority evaporates.

    doesn’t the beer run out the holes in the grates?
