RAW VS PRE-COOKED
Some Bratwurst are sold raw, while others are sold pre-cooked. It is important to know this so that they are properly prepared before eating. Be sure to check with your butcher or deli about the Bratwurst they have available.
Pre-Cooked Bratwurst
The most common type of Bratwurst is the pre-cooked kind. Their shelf-life is longer and they are easier and faster to grill. They are pale and stiff in appearance. These Bratwurst are fully cooked. Simply brown them in a pan or on the grill and they are finished and ready to be eaten.
Raw Bratwurst
Raw Bratwurst are pink in color. Grilling them in their raw form requires skill because they must be fully cooked inside without burning the outside. One recommendation is to cook the Bratwurst in hot (not boiling) water for 5-10 minutes. Once fully cooked inside, brown the outside of the Bratwurst on the grill or in a pan.
To grill the Bratwurst in their raw form without pre-cooking, grill them over low heat and frequently spritz them with water or olive oil to cool the skin and prevent burning. When they reach an internal temperature of 175 degrees or they are firm to the touch when pressing on them with your finger or grill utensil, they're done.
Remove them from the heat and let them rest (covered) for several minutes. The Bratwurst will continue to cook inside which will take care of any part of the sausage that is not yet fully cooked.
IMPORTANT NOTE!
All Cincy Beer Brats are slow smoked and fully cooked for your enjoyment.
