Directions
-
Split brats lengthwise to butterfly. With casing side up, flatten to ½ inch thick. Strip off casing and press to form a rectangular patty.
-
Place flour in a shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl add eggs; beat. Add panko crumbs to a third shallow bowl. Coat brat patty with flour; dip in egg and coat with breadcrumbs. Repeat with remaining brat patties.
-
Prepare gravy mix according to package directions substituting milk and beer for 1 cup water.
-
Add oil to large skillet; 1/2-inch deep to almost submerge brat.
-
When oil is heated to medium heat (about 350° F) carefully add sausage.
-
Fry until golden brown; 2-3 minutes on one side, turn over to brown other side. Cook until brat reaches internal temperature of 160°F.
-
Remove brat patties from oil and drain on paper towel lined plate.
-
To make each open-face sandwich, layer toast slice and brat; top with gravy.
