Notes
- No alcohol: Non-alcoholic options include chicken broth, beef broth, vegetable broth, or full-sugar cola.
- Serve these brats with hot dog buns, sauerkraut, pickles, mustard, and ketchup.
- TO STORE. Place the leftover beer brats in an airtight container and store them in the fridge for up to 5 days.
- TO FREEZE. You can also freeze the cooked brats for up to 2 months. Let them thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
