This is our family's way of making beer brats! We love them this way and they are even better re-grilled the next day! Depending on how much you drink while you are prepping you may need more or less beer!

Time 2h30m

Yield 5 brats, 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 (12 ounce) cans beer
5 uncooked bratwursts (we like Johnsonville best)
1/8 cup yellow mustard
1/8 cup stone ground mustard
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 medium onion, cut into rings about 1/3 of an inch thick
sauerkraut (optional)
1 large red bell pepper (cut in rings the same size as the onions)
5 hot dog buns or 5 hoagie rolls

Steps:

  • Get a large grill safe dish (we use the reynolds disposable roasters), place the onions, red bell peppers (if using) and brats in the bottom.
  • Mix the two mustards, Worcestershire sauce and brown sugar together and dump this mixture over the brats and onions etc.
  • Stir until the onions and brats are evenly coated.
  • Pour enough beer into the dish to cover the brats and onion, then give it a slight stir to mix the mustard mixture with the beer.
  • Put in fridge and let sit at least 30 minutes, but an hour or two is much better. When marinating time is up, remove and let come to room temperature.
  • Pre heat your grill to medium high heat.
  • Place the container directly on the grate and cook the brats in the beer mixture for 10-15 minutes, until the beer is steamy and hot. Remove from heat. But do not discard yet.
  • Turn the grill down to medium heat (or however you like your brats grilled).
  • Remove the onions and brats from the beer mixture. Then place the brats on one side of the grill and the onions on the other.
  • Grill brats and onions, turning occasionally until done. Each time you turn, baste with the remaining beer mixture. The onions should be somewhat caramelized and soft.
  • Discard the remaining beer mixture and serve on buns or hoagies with sauerkraut and other condiments as desired.
