Add the beer, garlic, salt, onion, and whole peppercorns to a dutch oven (or skillet);

Brats in cast iron. Insert your bratwurst into the pan and bring the beer to a boil. I also sauteed some sweet peppers, onions, and zucchini, i. Allow your brats to cook in the beer as it.

Add the bratwurst and sear until nicely. Spray a skillet with cooking spray. A cast iron skillet is the best way to cook a bratwurst.

In this easy cooking video, i make some big bang beer bratwurst, indoors, in my cast iron skillet. Transfer the cast iron/dutch oven directly to the grill grates. Slice up onions and caramelize with butter or oil in skillet.

Quarter the onion and slice the quarters. Spray a skillet with cooking spray. The high heat creates a crisp outer skin while keeping the brat’s juices locked inside.

Bring to a boil then cover.
