I never have beer on hand so we use broth. Definitely steps it up to have the onions and sauce!
Ingredients
- 10 small brats or 5 big ones
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 medium onion
- 1 cup broth or beer
- fine sea salt and black pepper
Instructions
- Cut the onions: Quarter the onion and slice the quarters.
- Sear the brats: Heat the pan and add the oil. Sear the brats on medium-high heat for about 3 minutes, flip using tongs, and cook on the other side for another 3 minutes.
- Add the onions between the sausages and cook for about 2 minutes, until golden, stirring a few times.
- Cook brats: Flip the sausages again, add beer or broth, cover, and cook on low heat for about 10 minutes, flipping again halfway. The internal temperature should read 160°F/ 71°C. If you don't have an instant-read thermometer, just cut one brat in the middle; it's easy to see if it's cooked through.
- Make the sauce: Remove the brats, add salt and pepper to taste, and reduce the sauce for about 2 minutes. Return the sausages to the pan and turn them into the sauce. Serve immediately.
