Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 cup Beer (lager or pale ale recommended)
  • 4 Crunchy Rolls
  • 1 cup Mustard (spicy brown recommended)
  • 1 cup Sauerkraut (homemade or store-bought)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Place the beer bratwurst sausages on the grill and cook for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally until browned and cooked through (internal temperature of 160°F).

  4. Toast the crunchy rolls on the grill for 1-2 minutes until golden.
  5. Assemble the grilled beer bratwurst in the toasted rolls and top generously with mustard and sauerkraut.

Notes

  • Consider adding fresh herbs for an extra burst of flavor.
  • Use high-quality bratwurst sausages for the best taste and juiciness.
  • Resist piercing the sausages with a fork while grilling to retain juices.
  • When simmering in beer, keep the heat low for a gentle simmer.
  • Monitor grill timing closely for an even cook and crispy exterior without burning.
