Bratwurst in beer

Serves 10

20 bratwurst sausages (about 4 pounds)
2 medium yellow onions, 1 sliced and 1 chopped
2 cans (12 ounces each) of lager
20 sausage buns (optional)

1. In a large stockpot, place the bratwurst and the sliced onion. Cover the sausage and onion with lager. Bring to a vigorous boil.

2. Turn off the heat, cover the pot, and let steep for 15 minutes. Prepare a charcoal or gas grill, and heat to medium.

3. Transfer the bratwurst to the grill. Discard the beer and onion mixture. Grill the sausages until golden brown all over, 10 to 15 minutes.

4. Serve with ketchup, mustard, chopped onions, and relish, in buns if desired. Adapted from Denyce Wicht
