Sausages and Beer Brats on Italian Bread

The last thing we served before having dessert were these sausages on Italian bread. We served them up 2 ways, Italian sausages and beer brats. Since I don’t eat pork, I didn’t taste it. Gary tasted both and he thought they both tasted the same.

I brought the first batch out and it went like hotcakes. I didn’t intend to serve the beer brats the same way, but since it wasn’t getting eaten plain without bread, I decided to make heroes out of them as well. Both seemed like big hits.

Italian Sausages
Add a bit of oil to a hot skillet. Place sausages in pan in a single layer. Pierce each with a fork to let vent. Continue to cook until brown on both sides. Cut in half and let cook until no longer pink inside.

Beer Brats with Onions
Place a dozen brats, a sliced onion, and half a stick of butter in a single layer in a pot. Add enough beer to cover. Bring to a boil, then simmer until cooked. Transfer to grill or skillet, slice in half and cook until brown. Place back in the beer to serve.

In a separate pan, place sliced peppers and onions. Sauté until tender. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Serve on Italian bread. Slice into sections and serve.

  1. Found your site while looking for something to do with turkey sausage--- because these looked so tasty I ended up making subs with grilled green and red peppers, onions, mushrooms and provolone and pepper jack cheese. Thanks for the inspiration! Kate
