Ingredients:

• 1 pound loose pork breakfast sausage
• 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
• 1/4 cup finely chopped bell pepper
• 1/4 cup bread crumbs
• 1/4 cup Sierra Nevada® Pale Ale
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon dried sage
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 6 beer bratwurst links

3. Form the sausage mixture into 6 patties.

6. Grill the bratwurst links according to package directions.

Tips for Improvement:

• Use high-quality beer: The beer used in the recipe enhances the flavor of the brats. Use a flavorful beer like Sierra Nevada® Pale Ale or another pale ale with a hoppy aroma.
• Add more seasonings: Adjust the seasonings to your taste. You could add more garlic, sage, paprika, or cayenne pepper.
• Experiment with different vegetables: Instead of onion and bell pepper, try adding other vegetables like zucchini, carrots, or mushrooms to the sausage mixture.
• Grill the patties: For a smokier flavor, grill the sausage patties instead of baking them. Grill them over medium heat for about 10 minutes per side.
• Use different bread: Instead of plain buns, try using sourdough buns or pretzel buns to add more flavor.
• Add toppings: Top the brats with your favorite condiments like mustard, ketchup, sauerkraut, or relish. You could also add grated cheese or crispy onions for extra texture.
• Make ahead: The sausage patties can be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 2 days. When ready to cook, bring them to room temperature before grilling or baking.
