FRESH BRATWURST WISCONSIN STYLE



Fresh Bratwurst Wisconsin Style image

Here's my version of veal and pork bratwurst. Although this fresh sausage recipe is time-consuming to make, it's the best! You can lower the fat content by adding the optional raw potato. This method is for a food processor, but you can also use a meat grinder. You can also stuff the mixture into sausage casings.

Time 11h10m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 ½ pounds pork butt, fat trimmed and reserved
1 pound veal
1 tablespoon salt
1 ½ teaspoons coarsely ground black pepper
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon dry mustard
2 teaspoons mustard seed
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon dried sage
¼ cup cold milk
2 cups grated raw potatoes

Steps:

  • Cut the pork butt, veal, and fat into 1 inch cubes. Spread on a plate, and place in the freezer for 10 minutes to make it easier to chop. Place food processor bowl and blade in the freezer as well for the same amount of time.
  • Set up the food processor and add just enough meat to cover the blade. Pulse to form chunks about 3/8 inch in size. Repeat with remaining meat. Process the fat into smaller pieces, about 1/4 inch, and mix it with the meat.
  • Put the chopped meat and fat into a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper, sugar, mustard and mustard seed, nutmeg, and sage. Pour in cold milk, and add grated potatoes if desired. Mix together with your hands.
  • Make a small patty of the sausage mixture, and fry it in a small pan over medium heat. Taste, and adjust seasonings of the sausage mix if necessary. Cover bowl, and refrigerate for 8 hours to improve flavor before cooking as desired.

AUTHENTIC WISCONSIN BRATWURST!



Authentic Wisconsin Bratwurst! image

Every summer "Johnsonville" trucks roll up at local Super-Markets. Set up huge grills in the parking lot and cook their famous Bratwurst. This is their recipe!

Provided by Koechin Chef

Categories     < 30 Mins

Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 bratwursts, fresh
2 (12 ounce) bottles dark beer
1 onion, sliced
1/4 cup dark brown sugar
1 lb sauerkraut, drained

Steps:

  • Bring the beer, onions and brown sugar to a boil. Place the Brats in the liquid and turn down to lowest heat, so they just simmer. Now get your grill fired up and when it's ready take your brats out of the beer and grill them. Since they are pretty well done, they need very little time on the grill. Turn the heat up to high under the beer. Dump in all or part of your drained sauerkraut. Let it cook on high until the brats come in from the grill (if you are not a lover of sauerkraut leave this off).
  • Condiments: Mustard, catsup, sweet pickle relish, raw onions as well as the sauerkraut onion mixture from the pot your brats where inches In Milwaukee we could buy a Brat Bun which is firmer more like French bread. But hot dog or hoagie buns will work too. :-).
  • When they cook them on the parking lots, they put the grilled brats right back into the beer and hold them there until people buy them. They have large pans sitting at the back of the grills. Since it's a promotion, they sell for $1.00. Yummmm!

WISCONSIN BRATWURST



Wisconsin Bratwurst image

This is the only way to cook bratwurst in Wisconsin. The brats are incredibly tasty! If you can get fresh bratwurst from a sausage shop, do it... it is worth the extra cost. Serve with brown mustard on substantial hoagie rolls, never on hot dog buns. Mustard is important and must always be stone ground. Add warm sauerkraut and ketchup, if you like. Chow down! Think about those Wisconsin summers! Listen to some polka!
