We're the Best at the Wurst.
A lot of places in Wisconsin make bratwurst.
We're the place where people who don't think they like bratwurst become bratwurst people.
From our focus on quality ingredients to our meticulous process, everything we do when we make our sausage is not just to make bratwurst...
It's to make brat-best.
Find out how our sausage is made, what makes it different than the "other stuff", and discover the wide world of flavor we have created for you to enjoy.

Two ways to get great results — pick the one that fits your day.
The Best Way
- Preheat your grill to medium-low direct heat.
- Place brats on the grate and close the lid.
- Flip every 2 – 3 minutes for even browning on all sides.
- Cook until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (about 20–25 minutes total).
- Rest for 2–3 minutes before serving.
The Easy Way
- Bring a pot of water (NOT beer) to a boil.
- Add the brats and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for about 10 – 12 minutes until cooked through (160°F).
- Transfer to a grill or oven broiler and brown for 2 – 3 minutes per side over medium-high heat.
Soak your brats in warm beer AFTER you cook them, not while cooking them. Would you like to drink boiled beer? No — that would taste gross! So why would you cook your brats in that burnt flavor?
