OK – I’m not about to tell you that this is a health item.? It certainly is not – but good lord is it delicious.? I got this from a good friend who’s 100% German.? Apparently it essay order came from his Grandma’s kitchen.? I believe it and have made these for?countless parties.? Most will say that these are the best “grilled” sausages they’ve ever had.? If for nothing else, you MUST try this due to it’s simplicity and taste.

Ingredients

• 2 ? packages (the 5 ? 6 link) of your favorite Brats or Italian sausages (I use Hot Italian)
• 2 – sticks?of unsalted butter, cut into small squares
• 2?- bottles of?Warsteiner (or any dark beer works such as Negra Modelo)
• 1 – can store bought sauerkraut
• 10 – 12 Hoagie buns
• 1 – bottle Spicy mustard

Basic Directions

• Put butter and beer into large stock pot on the stove, medium ? high heat
• Heat until butter melts completely
• Add sausages to stock pot
• Increase heat until you have a rapid boil
• In the meantime, prepare a grill for high heat, direct cooking
• Cook until most (if not all) liquid is gone without burning the sausages (probably 30 minutes or more)
• Remove sausages from stock pot
• Grill sausages 1 ? 2 minutes per side to add a grilled look and taste
• Be careful and watch the sausages?all that butter and beer will make them burn quickly!!!
• Serve on soft hoagies with spicy mustard and?sauerkraut or your favorite toppings and a bottle of Negra Modelo
