Sausage Recipes

Growing up on a lake in the Sheboygan area, this was a standard way that the German folks would grill their brats. We always served them on the old-fashioned hard rolls. By finishing them in the beer sauce they just get better and better. Though it's expensive, on special occasions I use a dark beer which is not German at all: Guinness Irish Stout. Around our house, we eat them with ketchup and mustard, and the cooked onions from the brat sauce.

Sausage is indisputably delicious and most world cuisines have at least a few staple versions, from different types of Italian sausage to bratwurst to chorizo, and everything in between. Here's what you need to know about the world's best sausages with top-rated recipes to match.
