There's plenty of arguments over which is better: charcoal or gas. But there's never an argument over what's really important: the sauce!
When you have a self-proclaimed bratwurst capital of the world located right here in Bucyrus, Ohio, you better know how to grill it. Bratwurst is a highly seasoned German sausage made up of pork, beef and sometimes veal. The Bucyrus bratwurst recipe is unique for incorporating the caraway seed into the recipe and it's got to be served on a rye bun with chopped onions, hot mustard and some sauerkraut.
Boil the brats in a mixture of beer and boiling water until the skin turns grey, then through those brats on the grill to give them that charcoal flavor.
Bucyrus, the bratwurst capital of the world, has its annual bratwurst festival every year the last week of August.
