Grilled Brats with Southern Toppings

Servings: 0

Ingredients

Pimento Cheese

  • 6 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 3-4 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 (4-ounce) jar diced pimentos, may not need whole jar, drained well

Green Tomato Chow Chow

  • 3 medium green tomatoes
  • 1 green bell pepper
  • 1 medium sweet onion
  • 1 jalapeno
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons white vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon celery seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Brats

  • 1 package Johnsonville Bratwurst
  • 5 rolls
  • 1 cup sauerkraut
  • mustard

Instructions

  • Make pimento cheese. Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl and stir to mix well. Depending on how many pimentos you want, you may or may not want to use all of them.
  • Make Green Tomato Chow Chow. Cut tomatoes, green pepper, onion, and jalapeno into chunks and process in a food processor until fairly finely chopped. Transfer to a medium saucepan. Add sugar, vinegar, mustard seeds, celery seeds, and salt. Heat over medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat. (Just cook long enough to dissolve the sugar and distribute the flavors. You want the vegetables to maintain some crunch.)
  • Grill Bratwurst according to package directions.
  • Top brats with either pimento cheese or sauerkraut, Green Tomato Chow Chow, and mustard.
