Lammycat Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 I like both, and you really can't go wrong either way. I dig hot links the most. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
smells like flowers Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Brats, first boiled in beer and then finished on the grill.Mmmmm, sounds awesome. I'm a fan of any salty, smoky sausage as long as there is a natural casing involved. That delicious crunch is one of the finer points of being a carnivore! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lammycat Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 I have a hard time picturing me wasting beer on soaking a brat, though.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uncool2pillow Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 I have a hard time picturing me wasting beer on soaking a brat, though....Cheap beer. I have no favorite, just whichever I crave at the time. We've grilled a TON of Italian sausage links recently. I could eat those every day during the summer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

NoJ Posted July 9, 2014 Author Share Posted July 9, 2014 Frankly (no pun intended) I prefer the polish. Slathered with spicy mustard and heaps of grilled onions and some kraut.....oh man! Surprisingly, Comiskey Park does a polish right. I ate two the last time I was there and managed to teach my boy the wonders of kraut too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
calvino Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Why are you surprised that Comiskey does it right? Went to game a few weeks ago, but only had a hot dog --- wanted a Polish, too - but felt I didn't need it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NoJ Posted July 9, 2014 Author Share Posted July 9, 2014 Usually you gotta go to a Maxwell St type of place for a proper polish. I'm glad Comiskey puts in the effort to make it right. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caliber66 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 You know, the name of the sausage comes from the name of a country. Show some goddamn respect and capitalize the goddamn thing.No, not "Bratwurst," although, as a German noun, it should always be capitalized too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chez Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Spicy Italian is my grilling sausage of choice followed by Brats. Now my mouth is watering. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Winston Legthigh Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Please stop boiling your brats! Simmering in beer is fine, for a few minutes only. When you boil them, you're boiling away a lot of the tasty fat out of the brat. Having said that, a nice fresh kielbasa is my favorite to grill. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ghost of Electricity Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I'm so sick of kielbasa i can't wait to sink my teeth into a brat or Italian sausage when I'm back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What always do with any type of fresh sausage. Is cut up an onion and red/green pepper or two; place in a tin foil pan in a single layer put the sausages; pour half of a beer over all; seal tightly with tin foil; place on medium high grill for 15 20 mins; then remove foil and brown sausages directly. This way if any fat is released it is into the peppers and onions. The peppers and onions are nicely cooked and the sausages are perfectly cooked. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
