Equipment

Ingredients

  • 4 bratwursts
  • 4 bratwurst buns
  • Sliced onions & peppers optional
  • Condiments

Instructions

  • Light charcoal and spread evenly on one-half of the grill. If using a gas grill, light burners on one side of the grill.
  • Oil the grates with a paper towel soaked in oil to prevent sticking
  • Place the brats on the grill, directly over the charcoal or flame. Cook, turning frequently to prevent burning and to cook evenly, for about 15 minutes. You may need to move the brats further away from the coals or flame as they brown, to prevent burning. Remove when the internal temperature has reached 160° F.
  • Serve on buns with onions, peppers, and condiments.
