I'm glad you didn't choose it for the recipe ... anyone who pricks
a brat with a fork before grilling deserves to be poked with a fork
themselves! And you simmer in the beer sauce *after* grilling.

Oh man... never, never, never prick the brats before simmering. That
lets all the juice/fat/flavor out and the finished product is more often
than not very dry.

Simmer the brats very slowly so they don't burst. Finish on a medium
grill or in a frying pan to get that nice dark brown color.

The worst (or wurst) way to cook them is on the grill, over direct heat.
The skins split, the fat hits the flame and you end up with something
that looks and tastes incinerated. Amazing how many people in Wisconsin
cook them that way, though.

No, no. What I meant was that the looked like they might break easily if I
tried to put them in there.

I had about 8 cute come-backs for this:

Sure, it's easy if you use all that fancy equipment.

I don't like the quick-made approach; I do it without cutting corners

I wonder how much one of those machines costs, not counting benefits.

And so forth. But in the end: Wow. Just wow. I love this pastry
anyway, but had no idea what kind of human time and labor went into it
in order to fill the baskets up at the front of the shop.

Ditto. I have a four pack in the freezer that are getting cooked up on
the grill this weekend. They are from Omaha Steaks and not worth the
price, but even that said, they are really very good.

Thanks! Now that I know what I have, I think I will save it for a winter
emergency meal.

Thanks! He is not a big chip lover though. He will eat them at times and I
never know when that might be but if I put them on his plate he usually
won't eat them.

I can't serve them any way I want. I don't want them. I would never eat
them. I assumed since they were German there might be a typical way of
serving them. That is why I asked.

Omaha Steaks? Thanks for being honest, but are you made of money?
I've never seen anything from the Omaha Steaks website that I thought
would be worth what they want to charge (+shipping).

IMO: Bratwurst is okay... it's not at the top of my "like" list, but
it's okay - not horrible, but "okay". The German sausage I absolutely
loved when visiting Germany was Nuremberg sausage... but I haven't
found one in the USA that I like as well as I had there. Yes, even
the ones are labeled as being from Nuremberg.

So, you meant to say that your freezer is so filled up that it would
be hard to stuff them into it? I can relate. I have a freezer on the
bottom, but sometimes I have so much in there that the door doesn't
shut properly... so I have to reorganize what's in it or take
something out to cook the next day.

You are going to soak your bratties? Do report back if you find a
difference please?

You grill yours? I just fry mine very slowly the same way I do sausages

Yes. It wasn't stuffed until the chest freezer broke. We tried to salvage
as much as we could. We did wind up having to toss a couple of small pizzas
and some Atkins foods that I don't think anyone ever would have eaten.
Amazingly we were able to save most of it.

Currently the thing is like a booby trap. Open the door and risk something
flying out at you. Part of the problem are those danged strawberry Outshine
bars that someone in this house is addicted to. Those are the sort of thing
that I would never to rarely buy. But because they are such a popular item
here, I have to keep 2-3 boxes at all times. And I have to buy this many
every few days. Danged annoying.

I did quit putting raw meat in the freezer but... I have put leftover
cooked meat in there and now that Angela has gone vegetarian, we have a lot
of meat to use up! Once some of that is gone, I may have some freezer space
again.

I got a package from them once when we lived in Alameda. It was a small
assortment pack meant for two people. I wasn't eating meat then and I don't
think Angela was eating much of it. She was probably an older infant or
toddler. I do remember two small steaks that I made into Steak Diane.
Husband was not impressed. I don't know why but he loves big pieces of meat
and in his eyes, two small steaks would never be as good as one large one.
I think there were a couple of hamburger patties in there and perhaps some
chicken or pork. It was a good deal, including the shipping but it was a
one time thing.

After that? Forget it. The prices were just too high for me and I don't
like dealing with frozen uncooked meat.

Do you know if they changed the Johnsonville Brats? People used to rave
about them but recently all I hear is complaints.

I have tried frying them with beer and onions but husband said they were
never as good as other people's. So I pretty much quit making them. We
don't grill.

No I don't grill in the way you mean. I do sometime grill (broiler) things
though.

I've never tried frying them with beer ?? how will they fry with that liquid
in with them?

I don't remember the particulars. I think I just dumped in a can of beer
and a cut up onion and cooked them until the beer was mostly gone.

Frying sausages (like kielbasa) with beer and onions? To do that
successfully, add in lots of green pepper slices. It's a necessary
ingredient, imo. Beer is optional. I never use it.

You often seem to cook for your husband, your daughter, and yourself
but all three of you are picky eaters with different tastes. For you
to cook something for them that you won't or can't eat is wasted time,
imo. If you don't taste as you go, you'll often fail. Most people
taste and adjust food as it's cooking.

In your unique situation, the other two should cook their own meals.
Both are capable of doing that. It just seems to be the practical
solution in your case.

I put a tiny bit of oil in the pan and fry the (kielbasa) for a bit.
Then I'll add tons of onions and green peppers, add a little water (or
beer if you prefer), cover and let simmer until the veggies are soft.
Then remove the lid and cook out the liquid.

All put on a soft roll is good eats, imo.
