Description

In this simple Wisconsin brats recipe, fresh bratwurst sausages are cooked with beer and sliced onions, then grilled until brown and irresistible.

Ingredients

2 pounds fresh bratwurst sausages
6 (12 fluid ounce) cans or bottles beer
2 onions, thinly sliced
1 cup butter
1 1/2 teaspoons ground black pepper
10 hoagie rolls

Directions

1 Prick bratwurst with a fork to prevent them from exploding as they cook.
2 Place in a large stockpot. Add beer, onions, butter, and black pepper. Place the stockpot over medium heat, bring to a boil and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes.
3 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
4 Cook bratwurst on the preheated grill until evenly browned, about 10 to 14 minutes, turning occasionally. Serve hot off the grill with onions on hoagie rolls.
