Grilled Bratwurst With German Potato Salad Recipe

ingredients

4 cans (12 ounce size) beer
1 1/2 pound Bratwurst sausage links
2 pounds baking potatoes, peeled and medium diced
salt
6 ounces raw bacon, chopped
1 cup chopped onions
freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, more to taste
1/4 cup whole grain mustard, plus more for serving
4 hard-boiled eggs, sliced
1/4 cup chopped green onions
vegetable oil
12 slices dark bread, warmed
OR
6 split rolls, warmed

directions

In a saucepan, over medium heat, bring the beer up to a simmer. Add the sausages and cook until plump, about 4 to 6 minutes.

Preheat the grill.

In a saucepan, over medium heat, cook the potatoes in salted water until tender, about 15 minutes. Remove and drain well. Keep warm.

In a saute pan, over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Add the onions. Season with black pepper. Saute for 1 minute. Remove from the heat.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked potatoes, crispy bacon/onions with fat, vinegar, to taste, mustard, eggs, and green onions. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well. Using the back of a spoon, mash the mixture together. The salad should be well blended but with some lumps.

Lightly brush the sausages with oil. Place on the grill and cook for a couple of minutes on each side. Remove the sausages from the grill. Mound the potato salad in the center of each serving plate. Lay the sausages next to the salad. Garnish with parsley. Serve with the warm bread or rolls and mustard.
