Test Kitchen Tips
  • Stone-ground mustard has more heat and a deeper flavor than yellow mustard. Other mustards can be substituted.
  • Starting this recipe with cooked brats makes it speedy and convenient. If you decide to start with uncooked brats, grill them until fully cooked first, then cut into thirds and proceed with the recipe.
