Anyone from the Mid West knows a great bratwurst when they taste one. The perfect brat is first boiled in beer and then browned to perfection. It can be served alone or with tomatoes, onions, spicy mustard, or sauerkraut, just to name a few! Spice up your grilling offerings and try Teton Waters Ranch Classic Bratwurst found at your local Bashas’ stores. Their bratwursts are made with 100% antibiotic and hormone-free grass-fed and grass-finished beef.
The Perfect Bratwurst Cooking Instructions:
- Place your bratwursts in a large pot and cover with liquid. Beer is the most traditional liquid used, but you can use beef broth or water. Include butter, onion and/or garlic to give the liquid some additional flavor. Do not fill your pot more than 3/4 of the way.
- Bring the liquid and brats to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer. Simmer the brats for 10 minutes.
- Next, it’s time to brown the meat! Remove them from the liquid and wait for them to dry. You can brown the brats on a grill, under a broiler, or in a frying pan! Using your favorite method, on medium heat, cook the links for 3-4 minutes per side until the outside is browned. Do not use excessive heat to avoid having the casing crack open.
- Once brats are browned, they are ready to enjoy! Serve alone or in a bun with your favorite toppings.
