    List of Ingredients




    8 uncooked bratwurst links
    12 oz beer (1 1/2) cups
    2 TBS packed brown sugar
    1 TBS prepared mustard
    1 tsp chili powder
    several dashes bottled hot pepper sauce
    2 cups hickory or oak wood chips
    3 medium onions, sliced
    3 TBS butter or margarine
    1 tsp chili powder
    8 french style rolls, split and toasted

    Recipe



    1. Use tines of fork to pierce several holes in each bratwurst. Place bratwurst in a resealable plastic bag set in shallow dish. For marinade, in medium bowl, combine beer, brown sugar, mustard, t tsp chili powder, and hot pepper sauce. Pour over bratwurst, seal bag. Marinate in fridge for 6 to 24 hours, turning bag occasionally.

    2. At least 1 hour before grilling, soak wood chips in enough water to cover. Drain before using.

    3. Fold a 36x18 inch piece of heavy foil in half to make an 18" square. Place onion in center of foil. Dot with butter and sprinkle with 1 tsp chili powder. Bring up two opposite edges of foil; seal with a double fold. Fold remaining ends to completely enclose onion, leaving space for steam to build. Refrigerate until ready to grill. Drain bratwurst, reserving marinade.

    4. Arrange medium-hot coals around drip pan in a charcoal grill with a cover. Test for medium heat above pan. Sprinkle drained wood chips over coals. Place bratwurst on grill rack over drip pan. Place onion packet next to bratwurst on grill rack directly over coals. Cover and grill for 20 to 25 minutes or until an instant read thermometer registers 160 degress when inserted near center of a bratwurst, brushing bratwurst once with marinade halfway through cooking. Discard remaining marinade. (If using a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to med. Adjust for indirect grilling. Grill as above, except add drained wood chips according to manufacturers directions.

    5. Remove bratwurst and onion packet from grill. Serve on toasted rolls and top with onion and sweet pepper relish.
