cooking directions :

Always thaw product prior to cooking. To ensure product is cooked thoroughly, use a cooking or meat thermometer to make sure sausage has reached an internal temperature of 160°F.

Skillet

Spray a skillet with cooking spray. Add sausage. Cook over medium-high heat until browned, about 5 minutes, turning links often. Reduce heat to medium-low. Carefully add ½ cup water to skillet. Cover and simmer for 12 minutes or until cooked through.

Gas or Charcoal Grill

Preheat gas grill to medium-low. (If charcoal, allow it to burn until white ash has formed on the coals.) Place links on grill and use tongs to turn links often. Grill covered for 15-20 minutes or until cooked through and browned. (Closing the grill lid while cooking helps minimize flare-ups.)

Indoor Broiling

Preheat broiler. Place links on broiler pan or foil-lined baking pan on center oven rack (7-9 in. from heat). Broil for 11-12 minutes or until sausage internal temperature reaches 160F, turning links every 4 minutes.

Brats for Breakfast

by Rae a. Kressin 1 month ago
A week doesn't go by that my husband doesn't make brats for breakfast once - twice - three times a week! He loves them. He prefers the plain but if they aren't available he'll settle for your beer - n- brats. We also love the plain on the grill almost every Saturday night or Sunday during the big game it's brats in beer on the grill during the summer and when we lived in Florida it was all year long!! Can't get enough of the brats! Or your Italian sausages either!

King of the Brats!

by M Kinkade 2 months ago
If you are looking for that real taste from a brat - get Johnsonville! (no they didn't pay me to say this)!

Salt and Fat

by Stephanie 2 months ago
The amount of fat, including saturated fat, as well as the sodium levels of a single serving, make the Johnsonville products something to eat with caution and only on an occasional basis.

Why are you eating sausages if you are so concerned with you fat intake stick to chicken and not a pork sausage! Any processed sausage is going to be the same have you looked at even chicken sausages all processed foods have a lot of saturated data and salts in them. That's a price you pay for the convenience of a premade sausage. Learn to make your own!

Crowd Pleaser!

by Momto3 10 months ago
Top reason for loving these: They are gluten-free, so my 6 year old can eat them!! My husband frequently grills a value pack of Brats on the weekend. I chop the leftovers and use them throughout the week for stir fry, pasta, etc. I don't even like sausage, but I love the flavor that the rice gets from being cooked with Johnsonville Brats!

Yummy

by SomeGerman 1 year ago
I was born and raised in Germany...so I know what a Bratwurst should taste like. These are quite excellent I have to say! We like to cook them a little longer and poke the with a fork during cooking to get more of the fat out. Try some leftover ones after they've been refrigerated...soooo good!

My family demands Johnsonville Brat's

by JerseyPaulie 1 year ago
I started just grilling the original Brats, but it's our favorite breakfast sausage too! I like the small Johnsonville breakfast sausage but I like a bigger sausage. I take a raw Brat and slice it lengthwise in half and remove the casing. Then I put it between saran wrap and flatten it out. The large flat pieces griddle quickly and go great with pancakes, eggs, or anything else. Of course, real maple syrup makes them even better.
