6 original brats (I used Johnsonville)
2 (12 ounce) bottles beer (I used Blue Moon)
1 large yellow onion, sliced
3 garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon course black pepper

Steps:

Combine all ingredients in a slow cooker. Cook for 2 hours on high heat, reduce heat to low. Remove brats from slow cooker. Grill brats (or toss in a skillet) until you have sear marks (which gives you that yummy grilled taste) and place back in slow cooker until ready to serve.
Serve brats on a bun of your choice. Hoagie roll or big sesame seed buns are my favorite. Top with the crockpot beer onions and your favorite toppings (cheese, ketchup or mustard are our staples).
Serve and enjoy!
