Here’s the recipe for the best bratwurst evah.

• 1 package of bratwurst or about 12 single ones if you know a good meat shop and will buy them individually
• 1/2 stick of butter
• 2 good beers.  Don’t use cheap shit.
• about 3 tablespoons of brown sugar
• about 2 teaspoons of chili powder
• 3 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1 large white onion, coarsley chopped
• 2 teaspoons of black pepper
• 1 foil roasting pan
• aluminum foil
• charcoal grill

Put the brats in the roasting pan and pour the two beers over them. Then you throw the rest of the shit in there and let it sit in the fridge for about five hours.  When they’re good and soaked, prepare your grill.  When you arrange your charcoal be sure to move them to the edges so you have a big spot cleared for indirect heat.  Now the recipe gets really simple.  Put the roasting pan on the spot in the grill where there are no coals, cover it with foil and let it simmer for probably 40 minutes. Every 10 minutes, move the brats around and turn them so they cook evenly.

After 40 minutes of simmering, take the bratwurst out of the bath and throw them on the grill over the coals.  Brown them for about 2 or 3 minutes a side and put them back in the roasting pan.  Remove the roasting pan from the grill and serve.  Please, for the love of all things sacred, don’t use hot dog buns.  Use a good hoagie roll and serve with a quality spicy brown mustard and some onions from the brat bath.
