GRILLED BRATS, SHEBOYGAN STYLE
I have never been to Sheboygan, Wisconsin but I am told it is refered to as the "Wurst City in the World". Bratwurst was brought to America by German immigrants. There is disagreement even among Wisconsinites re: the "only" way to cook brats. Here is one way that my husband tried out on us. I loved it and decided to post this recipe.

Steps:
- Pierce each bratwurst 4 times with a fork and put the sausages in a pan large enough to hold them in one layer.
- Add beer and bring to a boil over medium heat.
- Let simmer for 15-20 minutes.
- Drain bratwurst; place on a prepared grill over medium-high heat.
- Grill for about 10 minutes or until well browned.
- Lightly butter the rolls; you can either toast them under the broiler or grill them until they are golden brown.
- Put brats in rolls; serve with mustard, onion, and pickles or sauerkraut.
- Sheboygan natives have been known to douse their bratwurst sandwiches with lots of hot melted butter.

MAKE AHEAD GRILLED BRATS AND BEER WISCONSIN STYLE
These are great to make ahead for cookouts or tailgating. Especially if you need the grill for other foods. They can be reheated in a foil pan on the grill, in the oven or in a crock pot. They can be made a day ahead, the morning of, or served right away. You need fresh bratwurst for this, not the smoked or white colored sausage. We've already made 100 of these ahead for large groups.
