    Creamy Whole Grain Mustard Slaw Topped Bratwursts

    Mustard topped slaw bratwursts on a cutting board.

    It’s memorial day weekend and grilling season has officially begun, yay!! Today we’re grilling up these totally delicious whole grain mustard saw topped bratwursts! I love a big, juicy sausage (no pun intended…really) and brats are one of my favorites. They’re filled with flavor and I love the way grilled brats in particular almost snap when you bite into them.

    We poached the brats in a little beer before finishing them off on the grill for that great, smoky flavor and crisp outer texture! We’ve topped the brats with a super simple whole grain mustard slaw. I personally prefer a vinegar based slaw to a creamy one, but on occasion I’m totally into creamy slaws; with this slaw you sort of get the best of both worlds. You get that nice spicy and sour flavor from the mustard and cider vinegar combination and the dash of mayo adds just a touch of creaminess to the slaw. The pinch of sugar isn’t necessary, but I think it helps to balance out all the flavors.

    If you guys are looking for a last minute something to toss on the grill and serve up this weekend, these almost classic beer brats are PERFECT! Enjoy!
    xx, Jenny
