Party In Your Mouth Brat Recipes

Steps:

• For the bratwurst: Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
• Bring the beer to a simmer in a pot with the apples, sliced onions, salt and pepper. Add in the brats and simmer, turning once, until cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes. Strain out the solids and reserve 1 cup of the beer base.
• Brown the sausages on the grill to add color and texture, 5 to 6 minutes.
• For the beer mushtard: Mix the mustard, jalapenos, mayonnaise and 1 to 2 tablespoons of the reserved beer base in a bowl. Adjust the thickness with more beer base if necessary.
• For the sandwich build, place the grilled brats on the pretzel buns, followed by some beer mushtard and Caramelized Onions.
• Add the oil and sliced onions to a skillet and stir to combine. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook over medium-low heat, undisturbed, until the bottoms of the onions begin to caramelize, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir only once and keep for another 5 minutes undisturbed. Once the onions are golden and soft, set aside. (Add water if necessary to help deglaze the pan throughout the cooking process.)

Steps:

• Set up grill for direct cooking over high heat. Oil grill grate when ready to start cooking.
• Place a large skillet on a grill or side burner and add butter. When butter has melted, add onions. Cook until softened, about 10 minutes. Add beer and cover; cook an additional 10 minutes.
• Remove cover from skillet and let simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
• Turn the heat on the grill down to medium. Place brats on oiled grill grates and cook 4 to 5 minutes per side
• Serve brats hot on toasted rolls smothered with onions and topped with mustard.
• INDOOR: In a large skillet over medium heat melt butter add brats and brown 10 minutes, turning them occasionally as they brown. Remove the brats and set aside. Add the onions and cook for 10 minutes, stirring frequently until softened. Pour in the beer and scrape up any brown bits in the bottom of the pan. Return the brats to the pan and cook over medium heat for 15 minutes or until beer has all but evaporated.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
• Add the apples, onions, beer salt and pepper in a medium pot or Dutch oven. Simmer until the apples and onions soften, a few minutes. Add in the brats and simmer until cooked through, about 10 minutes, turning once. Remove the brats from the liquid and reserve the beer braising liquid.
• Brown the brats on the grill, covering with a metal bowl if using a grill pan, until you get nice grill marks on all sides, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Place the brats on the buns and drizzle with some of the Beer Cheese Sauce. Top with the sauerkraut, some mustard and the jalapenos.
• Add the cheese and mustard to a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir until melted and smooth. Add the beer braising liquid and stir to combine. Add more braising liquid if the sauce is too thick; the sauce should be velvety.
