Really nice one Jim! Do you pick the skin of the brats? Why does mine always crack? Last time i had a dog explode and all the meat was shot out of the skin?(first time though) And they werent "fresh" brats...Pre smoked ones.

[JimmyE]

You definitely exceeded your goal in my opinion, that's about as perfect as it gets!

 

[Chris Lynch]

Hey Jim, those Brats look perfect! Mine always split open. How low is your temp?

[Jim Lampe]

Thank you everyone
Jacob's Brats are really the Best!

Welcome Home Kim, we missed you!

Do you pick the skin of the brats? Why does mine always crack? Last time i had a dog explode and all the meat was shot out of the skin?(first time though) And they werent "fresh" brats...Pre smoked ones.

I do nothing to the brats Daniel, well... the ONLY thing i do is lightly coat the brat with olive oil, then two mintues or so over direct heat constantly turning every two minutes (give or take)... once it "has colour", i remove them from direct heat (usually raise them from the grate) until they hit an internal temp of 160ºF.

Mine always split open. How low is your temp?

Sorry Chris I used a combo of Kingsford and lump, the heat was hot, butt i do not know the temp...

Save me some! I'll be passing by your house around 6 pm! En route to MN to see my girl graduate at U of MN!...

Gary! I forgot ALL ABOUT you driving by, STOP if you have time!
Liz is still in Michigan, actually arriving home about 6 or 7...
Exit 7 mile road in Racine county, drive west 1.5 miles to 51 st south 1/2 mile

[Gary H. NJ]

Jim. Sorry for the panic. Looks like we won't make it by after all.
