Ingredients

  • 1 lb bratwurst
  • 1 medium onion, white or sweet, sliced top-to-bottom
  • 1 tsp granulated sugar
  • salt and pepper
  • 12 oz beer (any will do)
  • 1 Tbsp brown sugar

Instructions

1

Melt the butter in a large skillet.

2

Brown the sausages on all sides, getting a nice dark sear. Remove from the pan and set aside

3

In the buttery, fatty goodness, saute the onions. Season with salt and pepper.

4

After about 5-10 minutes, they should have wilted like this. Sprinkle with a bit of granulated sugar (to help with the caramelization). Continue to saute for a few more minutes.

5

Pour in the beer and bring to a simmer. Add in the bratwurst and continue cooking until the beer has reduced to a glaze-like sauce. If needed, sprinkle in a bit of brown sugar to combat any bitterness from the beer.

6

By the time the beer becomes glaze, the sausages will have cooked for anywhere from 20-30 minutes. Remove one and insert a meat thermometer, ensuring that the internal temperature reaches at least 165 degrees.
