Ingredients for Beer Soaked Brats

  • Bratwursts
  • 1/4 cup beer (any kind you enjoy)
  • 3/4 cup water
  • Onion

How to Make Beer Soaked Brats

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Grill brats for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides and slightly split.
  3. In a medium saucepan, combine 1/4 cup beer, 3/4 cup water, and 1/2 cup thinly sliced onion.
  4. Bring the beer mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
  5. Add the grilled brats to the simmering liquid. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, turning brats halfway through.
  6. Before serving, place brats back on the preheated grill for 1-2 minutes per side to crisp them up slightly.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
