Brats And Beans On The Grill


 

Cliff Bartlett

R.I.P. 5/17/2021
Grilled some Brats on Wednesday night. Used my favorite Brat recipe from Weber. Felt like some beans to go along with them and tried something new. Found a good looking recipe on line. Two problems. One was it was a crock pot recipe. Ug. Two, it left out some of my favorite stuff. Converted to something I could do on the grill and added my stuff.

Did some prep on the beans earlier in the day. Browned a little over a pound of lean ground beef.

Added coarsely chopped onion and lots of garlic.

Mixed well.

Here it is ready to go into fridge until later this evening. Used Bush's canned kidney beans, Mexican stewed tomatoes, celery, red bell pepper, jalapenos, fresh corn, garlic, red wine vinegar, chili powder, cumin, dried parsley, dried basil, some Worcestershire and some good Cabernet Sauvignon.

Did the prep for the Brats. Veggies for the beer bath later.

Johnsonville all the way.

That evening I got the beans on grill for just under 2 hours.

Around one hour.

Got the veggies for the Brats sweating in some butter.

When the veggies limbered up placed in the beer moved to the indirect side. Put Brats on the heat side.

I love this Weber Brat Recipe. Done this recipe dozens of times and keep coming back to it. These beans were some of the best I've ever done. My wife thought they were the best. Really enjoyed this cook. Lots of beans left over to enjoy over the next few days. Hope you all have a great weekend. Thanks for looking!
 
Is there no end to your amazing cooks Cliff? You take a simple meal like BBQ Brats & Beans, and you make it 5*
 
One of the best brat cooks I've seen in a while. And I don't even know where to start on those beans. Holy cow, those look good. I could make a meal just out of them.
 
Cliff brats look fantastic and those beans WOW!!. Going to have to try them real soon. That was a great combo.
 
Well I was going to post our brat cook, but after seeing the masters version I think I'll pass. Outstanding Cliff!
