        I have made deer brats for several years now. My go to is Mango Habanero brats. I have been playing around with the flavor looking to obtain a particular flavor and all have been different. I found a mango Habanero sauce that when tasted I feel like this could give me what I am after. Does anyone have experience with adding sauces to their brats for flavor in relation to water content?

          Just grilled up some apple and buffalo wing brats. Both were awesome! Must say, the buffalo wing maybe my new favorite.

              PapaSop Dont judge the apple till you try it. I was pleasantly surprised. Like I said though, the Buffalo Wing is incredible in my opinion.

                  PapaSop Jonathon suggested cheddar cheese with the apple and may try it next time. Was wondering what cheese to potentially add to Buffalo Wing…not sure.

                    When I get to this I’ll probably not add cheese to either one. Gotta try it without the extra’s. That said I can see how the cheddar would work with apple. Perhaps the mozzarella with the buffalo?

                      PapaSop I was kinda thinking the same thing on the mozzarella. I agree on trying new flavors straight to begin with, I only make 4 lbs of each this go around. Have Garlic Parm thawed to try tomorrow.

                          Ok all, i couldnt make up my mind on seasoning limit of 6 flavors. So im gonna order more and drop my batches down on certain flavors. Before i order, couple questions.
                          Should i add sure gel with freah bratwurst?
                          Does anyone add Monosodium glutamate(MSG) to enhance flavor?
                          Any other recommendations on ingredients of recipes for these certain flavors much appreciated.
                          Are the Hatch green chili as hot as jalapeno, i hope not?

                                      Yeah that sounds big… but if you have them on hand use them. Or if your ordering get the 32-35. That’s what I normally use.
