How to Make Beer Brats With Onions And Peppers

  1. In a large pot, pour in 12 oz of beer and bring to a strong simmer over medium-high heat.
  2. Pierce each bratwurst sausage several times with a fork.
  3. Gently place the bratwurst into the simmering beer.
  4. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered for 15 minutes, or until the brats are almost cooked through.
  5. Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  6. Add the sliced onion to the skillet and sauté until softened and lightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.
  7. Stir in the sliced bell pepper and cook for another 3-5 minutes, until slightly tender-crisp.
  8. Remove the brats from the simmering beer and add them to the skillet with the onions and peppers.
  9. Brown the brats slightly on all sides, about 2-3 minutes. Add a splash more beer to the skillet if needed to maintain moisture.
  10. Serve the brats, onions, and peppers immediately on warm rolls or buns, topped with your favorite mustard.
