Spicy-Sweet Bacon-Wrapped Brat Bites Recipe
Ingredients
3 gluten free beers
- 1 onion, roughly chopped
- 3 bratwursts (I used 3 organic chicken brats from Whole Foods)
- 6 pieces of uncured bacon, cut in half
- 12 toothpicks
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup or raw honey
- 1 tablespoon Sriracha (or preferred hot sauce)…another tablespoon if you like it hot!
- 1/4 cup parsley (optional garnish)
Directions
Bring 3 beers, onions, and brats to a boil in a saucepan. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes.
Let cool. Cut brats in quarters.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Wrap each brat section with a piece of bacon and secure with a toothpick.
Whisk together maple syrup and hot sauce. Brush onto the wrapped brat sections.
Place on a broiler or raised rack over a cookie sheet (to catch the bacon drippings).
Cook for 35 minutes until bacon is crisp. Garnish with optional chopped parsley.
Enjoy!
