Traditional Wisconsin Memorial Day Menu

Grilled Brats in Beer and Stuffed Burgers:

These are two of my favorites to make on the grill, thanks to Cook's Illustrated. Start by slicing 4 onions in half inch rounds. Grill them till they start to brown and are nicely cooked. I like to place them on a piece of  nonstick tin foil with a little oil to prevent sticking. In the mean time, in a disposable 9 x 13"  foil pan,  mix together 2 bottles of your favorite beer with 2/3 cup dijon mustard, 1 tsp sugar, 1 tsp caraway seeds and some ground pepper. Place that on the grill also while the onions are cooking. Once the onions are done, add them to the beer mixture and start to grill the brats. When the brats are done, add them to the beer and onion mixture and start to grill the hamburgers. For the stuffed burgers I mixed together grated cheese, crumbled bacon, yellow mustard and ground pepper. Sooo Good! We enjoyed all the traditional fixings, four bean casserole, cucumber salad, sliced tomatoes, chips and dip and lots of wine and beer. Next time I make this meal, we'll add fresh sweet corn to the menu. On Wisconsin! Maybe you and G will be here.

  1. On Wisconsin indeed! This is a mouth watering meal to challenge those in Silver Spoon, and one which has universal appeal. I love the way the BBQ brings all together.
