CHEESY BEER BRAT SOUP



Cheesy Beer Brat Soup image

A cheesy, Wisconsin winter soup utilizing local beer. As with any recipe there are hundreds or thousands of variations on this basic recipe. We set this cheese/beer/brat soup apart from others with a couple primary distinctions. Being a beer nerd, when I add beer to a recipe I consider the style of beer seriously. To me beer is not just whatever you happen to have in the cooler/fridge etc. Here we've slected a locally available pale ale from Ale Asylum in Madison, WI. It lends some great color to the soup and the prominent hop presence in this ale adds a great flavor without being overwhelming. To replicate this recipe without Ale Asylum's Hopalicious you can substitute any quality pale ale or IPA. Ask your local specialty retailer for tips or look for anything with "pale ale" or "IPA" on the bottle. Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is probably the most widely available and is a suitable substitute. If you've any other questions, feel free to ask! Secondly, the brats. Brats should be cooked ahead of time in 12 ounces of the same beer that is being used in the soup. We typically cook our brats in a pan with beer and most of a whole onion until they're just cooked through then I throw them on my Big Green Egg and, using only natural lump charcoal WITHOUT lighter fluid, brown them gently. Then slice and quarter as per the recipe. Fianlly, I can't recommend enough that fresh ingredients be used whenever possible, especially the fresh-pressed garlic and fresh ground black peppers. Cheers!
