Pork - On the grill
The Ultimate Bratwurst
Tony’s Milwaukee style bratwurst simmered in beer, grilled and served on a toasted garlic bun with Swiss and braised onions.
Two medium onions, sliced
3 lbs fresh Tony's Bratwurst
1-2 bottles of full flavored beer (or water)
pinches of sea salt and pepper
2-3 TBS Garlic butter, softened
6 Tony's Pretzel Rolls or demi baguettes
6 thick slices Gruyere Swiss cheese, room temperature
Bavarian Mustard
Slice onions and arrange in the bottom of a casserole or roasting pan and top with fresh bratwurst. Add beer and enough water to cover, or just use water. Cover pan with a lid or foil and roast or indirect grill at about 350 degrees until done, about 40 minutes. Can be refrigerated at this point and grilled later.
Drain beer and remove brats. Add a pat of butter or a drizzle of oil and sauté onions – taste and adjust with salt and pepper if desired.
Brush or mist cooking grates with oil and grill brats over medium high coals just to brown - take care not to pierce the skin. Meanwhile, brush insides of buns with garlic butter and toast on grill. Add Swiss to center of buns while you toast the bun's backsides.
Serve brats on toasted buns with cheese, topped with Bavarian mustard and sautéed onions or Guinness Onions (optional recipe follows) - perfect with grilled corn, potato salad, beans and cole slaw. –Chef Mick Rosacci, Tony’s Market
Guinness Onion Sauce - optional
2 large or 4 small sweet onions
12 oz Guinness Stout
1/4 cup brown sugar
Slice onions and combine with Guinness and brown sugar and reduce over medium heat and finally low heat until only about 1/4 cup of glaze remains with the onions.
