My review
Wisconsin Bratwurst
Bob Cody
"This is the only way to cook bratwurst in Wisconsin. The brats are incredibly tasty! If you can get fresh bratwurst from a sausage shop, do it... it is worth the extra cost. Serve with brown mustard on substantial hoagie rolls, never on hot dog buns. Mustard is important and must always be stone ground. Add warm sauerkraut and ketchup, if you like. Chow down! Think about those Wisconsin summers! Listen to some polka!"

If you want to smother your brats with barbeque sauce, mustard, and sauerkraut to kill the taste, this recipe is o.k. I'm 100% German, eat brats once a week - but I like the natural flavor of...

Awesome brats. I made them for the Super Bowl game. After they were cooked, I put them back in the beer brine to simmer until everyone was ready to eat. I also added more onions than was call...

this recipe is very good but i found out that if you prick your brats and soak them over night in the beer they are much better.

We are not "bratwurst" people, but these were surprisingly good! Took a tip from another reviewer and made a curry ketchup (6 tbsp of curry + 1 tsp of curry), which I'm going to keep in the "sp...
