Like millions of other families across the country, we grilled yesterday. And as the head grillmaster of the house, the duties fell on me. After an eventful day that included two snake sitings in the backyard that had Ronnie completely flabbergasted, I realized my wing-woman wasn’t going to be by my side. No worries, that’s why you have kids 🙂 .
Along with my 12 year old daughter, we took to the grill in the late afternoon to try out Johnsonville Original Brats and Johnsonville 32oz Cheddar Bacon Grillers. We picked Johnsonville because they are made with only premium cuts of meat and we’ve been using them forever. With a house full of hungry family, everything fell on us to pull it off. And we executed like we have time and time again. Check out pictures and my recipe with the Apple Juice Sausage Bath below.
We started with the Johnsonville Brats. We’re big fans of their Original Bratwurst and it’s a regular at our home during the summer months when we cook on the grill frequently.
We also tried out the Johnsonville 32oz Cheddar Bacon Grillers for the very first time as well.
I found a great recipe for Apple Cider Sausage on the Johnsonville website so I took that and made a few minor adjustments since we were cooking a smaller amount. I also took into account that my kids love to eat their food as plain as possible, so I towed the line between giving them enough flavor but not too much.
For my recipe I used:
INGREDIENTS
- 2 cups apple cider or apple juice
- 1 large onion, sliced
- 1 package (19 ounces each) JOHNSONVILLE® Brats
- 1 (8-inch x 8-inch) heavy-duty disposable foil pan
I combined the apple juice and onions in the pan with the Johnsonville Brats. For more flavor you can also add cinnamon and cloves, but this worked great for us. The grill was already preheated and the pan was already simmering before I added the Johnsonville Brats.
I covered the pan with aluminum foil and turned my attention to the Johnsonville 32oz Cheddar Bacon Grillers while the Johnsonville Brats cooked for approx. 10-15 minutes.
I let the Johnsonville 32oz Cheddar Bacon Grillers cook and brown on each side. Even though they have bits of cheese and bacon inside, I still added a slice of American to each one.
By this time the Johnsonville Brats were ready to come out of the Apple Juice Sausage Bath. I pulled them out and placed them directly on the grill to brown. This was also a great family-friendly alternative to cooking the sausages in beer, but it still gave them great flavor.
After they brown you can place any Johnsonville Brats that need to stay warm back into the Apple Juice Sausage Bath until someone’s ready to eat them.
And the final result was a new dish for us to try and an old family favorite served with a fresh twist. The Apple Juice Sausage Bath Brats were so good that I think I’ll cook more today for lunch. To give the Johnsonville Brats an extra kick above the newfound flavor I added Capital City Mumbo Sauce to my rotation of condiments.
I’m looking forward to trying out Johnsonville’s Brat Hot Tub recipe soon with the Original Recipe Bratwurst and their Hickory BBQ Grillers as well.
For more information on Johnsonville you can check out their website, Facebook page or Twitter account.

Cambogia elite diet says
Today, I went to the beachfront with my kids.
I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell
to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to tell someone!

Woah! I’m really digging the template/theme of this
blog. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s difficult to get that “perfect balance” between user friendliness and appearance.
I must say you have done a excellent job with this. Also, the blog
loads very quick for me on Opera. Outstanding Blog!

First off I want to say excellent blog! I had a quick
question which I’d like to ask if you do not mind.
I was interested to know how you center yourself and clear your mind before writing.
I have had a difficult time clearing my mind in getting my thoughts out there.
I do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are lost simply just
trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or tips?
Thank you!

Hi, I think your website might be having browser compatibility issues.
When I look at your blog in Safari, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer,
it has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up!

I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the page layout of your site? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?|
