Ingredients
4 bratwurst sausages
1/2 cup mustard
1 cup sauerkraut
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to medium heat.
- Lightly brush the bratwurst sausages with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
- Grill the sausages for 10–12 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through.
- While the bratwurst is grilling, warm the sauerkraut in a small pan over low heat.
- Serve the grilled bratwurst with mustard and sauerkraut on the side.
- Optional: Serve in a crusty bread roll for a handheld meal.
Notes
Simmer bratwurst in beer and onions before grilling for added flavor.
Use spicy mustard or horseradish for a kick.
Top with sautéed onions or grilled peppers for extra texture.
Try different buns like pretzel rolls or tortillas for a fun twist.
Swap in veggie sausages for a vegetarian version.
Store leftovers in the fridge up to 3 days; reheat in a skillet to keep crisp.
