Recently Jake’s aunt added me to an email list she has for sending out recipes on a regular basis. Hallelujah!! What a fabulous idea, right?! The first email was all about some great tailgating recipes she has, so I thought I’d share it with you all since this is the perfect time to start gearing up for just such an occasion. I even have a friend who told me recently that his wife is about to be quite lonely due to the approaching football season schedule – apparently for four months he will be preoccupied with the sport. Here’s to feeding him & trying to keep him happy!
Hello {friends}........time to start again with the recipes of the week.....since summer is nearing to a close and FOOTBALL is upon us I thought for the next few weeks I would share some great grill and tailgate food.......here are 2 recipes that are cheap and sure to please.......hope you ENJOY the recipes........
BEER BRATS
1 dozen brats
Enough beer of your choice to cover......lager is good
1 large sweet onion, sliced
1/2 stick of REAL butter
Put the brats in a dutch oven with the onions and butter, cover the brats with beer and bring to a boil reduce to simmer and simmer till the brats are cooked. Remove the brats from pan and set aside the beer mixture. Grill the brats till golden brown and then return to the beer mixture on warm till ready to serve. Serve on your best buns with sauerkraut, onions, green peppers and your choice of condiment..........can't beat them.........
