Beer-boiled Brats have become a staple of American backyard grill-outs but these rich and juicy brats are the star of the show. Infused with the maltiness and subtle bitterness of beer, these flavor-packed faves kick it up a level (or ten) with the addition of sweet grilled red peppers and caramelized onions.
This recipe was created by our partner, Ben McGraw from @firehousegrub. Ben made this dish on our EDGE Electric Grill, but you can make it on your grill.
