I always used to say that the way to flush out the Noo Yorkers in a crowd was to put ketchup on a hot dog and see who screams. But ketchup on a brat with sour kraut? I am not buying it.
I used to put ketchup on my brats and dogs. Then, one day when I was about 35, I looked at my ketchup smeared dog and felt a deep revulsion. Haven't put ketchup on a sausage since. Ch-ch-changes....

Best. Part. Of. Summer.
Grilled bratwurst, hot, with juices exploding as you bite. Smothered in kraut and ketchup.
Ketchup? That doesn't sound right! How can you mix sauerkraut and ketchup? You're teasing.

It's delicious! Try it!
Only 5.5 months 'til the Brat Fest. I cannot wait!
Only thing missing is a bottle of chilled Point Special Lager.
Are you and Meade on the road again?
I'm having this.
Half power, 2:30 on a side.
The soy brats are pretty good these days too.
We grilled a couple of lovely steaks on a kettle grill (just like that one) tonight. Baked sweet potatoes, red wine. That be dinner.

"Are you and Meade on the road again?"
And the question arises because... when you see a giant-truck-o-brats, your first thought is: I wonder if they've left Wisconsin?
I agree - mustard and sauerkraut are better on a brat - but what's with those pickles?
