• Let the beer evaporate and reduce it until it is syrupy and to where it looks like it is coating the bratwurst well.
• Prepare the hot dog buns on a warm plate.

BEER BRATWURST

Steps:

• Place the pork and veal on a rimmed baking sheet, transfer to the freezer, and chill until crunchy on the exterior but not frozen solid (30 to 60 minutes).
• Pour the ale into a shallow baking dish, transfer to the freezer, and chill until the ale is semi-frozen.
• In a small bowl, add the salt, sugar, caraway seeds, mustard powder, thyme, ginger, nutmeg, and Cure No. 1 and stir to combine.
• Nest a large mixing bowl in a bowl filled with ice. Grind the meat through the small die (3/16-inch/4-mm) of the grinder into the bowl set in ice. Once all of the meat has been ground, pour the semi-frozen ale through the grinder, into the bowl, which will help push out any meat remaining in the feed tube or wrapped around the auger.
• Add the spice mixture to the meat and stir with your hands until well incorporated; the mixture will look homogenous and will begin sticking to the bowl.
• Spoon 2 tbsp of the meat mixture into a nonstick frying pan and spread into a thin patty. Cook the test patty over low heat until cooked through but not browned. Taste the sausage for seasoning and adjust as necessary.
• Press a sheet of parchment paper or plastic wrap directly on the surface of the meat to prevent oxidation, then cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. Alternatively, you can vacuum-seal the mixture.
• Stuff the sausage into the hog casings and twist into links.
• Poach the links in water or lager-style beer until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the sausage registers 145°F/63°C. The poached sausages can be grilled and then eaten immediately, or chilled fully in an ice bath and refrigerated, or frozen for longer storage. When you're ready to eat them, grill again or cook in a pan over medium heat until browned and heated through.

• Cook 15 minutes or so, until potatoes become tender.

BEER BRATS

Steps:

• Mix the two mustards, Worcestershire sauce and brown sugar together and dump this mixture over the brats and onions etc.
• Stir until the onions and brats are evenly coated.
• Pour enough beer into the dish to cover the brats and onion, then give it a slight stir to mix the mustard mixture with the beer.
• Put in fridge and let sit at least 30 minutes, but an hour or two is much better. When marinating time is up, remove and let come to room temperature.
• Pre heat your grill to medium high heat.
• Place the container directly on the grate and cook the brats in the beer mixture for 10-15 minutes, until the beer is steamy and hot. Remove from heat. But do not discard yet.
• Turn the grill down to medium heat (or however you like your brats grilled).
• Remove the onions and brats from the beer mixture. Then place the brats on one side of the grill and the onions on the other.
• Grill brats and onions, turning occasionally until done. Each time you turn, baste with the remaining beer mixture. The onions should be somewhat caramelized and soft.
• Discard the remaining beer mixture and serve on buns or hoagies with sauerkraut and other condiments as desired.
