Are banana peppers good on brats? ›

Yellow Onion and Bell Peppers – These are the basic veggies you're going to want, but you can jazz things up with a variety of sweet or spicy peppers and onions. Jalapeños and banana peppers would add a nice kick of spice to your smoked brats.

Looking for a quick answer? The best side dishes to serve with brats are sauerkraut, potato salad, grilled vegetables, blooming onion, potato rosti, chicken wings, german-style pretzels, coleslaw, baked beans, macaroni salad, and corn on the cob.

Add extra flavor to your brats by cooking in your favorite beer. They'll take on some of the characteristics you love – citrus, hops, malt and more. Try different beers with different brat varieties.

The best way to do this is precooking the brats in a broth of beer and water. Get a pot and add in beer and water in equal amounts (you can throw in other seasonings, like onions or garlic). Simmer the brat in this mix for 15 minutes to cook the sausage and add more flavor to it.

All sausages- except dry sausage - are perishable and therefore must be kept refrigerated or frozen. Uncooked fresh sausage can be stored in the refrigerator one to two days; after cooking, keep for three to four days refrigerated (40 °F or less).

The best side dishes to serve with smoked sausage are French fries, carrots and potatoes, blooming onion, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, cheese dip, McDonald's breakfast sauce, sweet cornbread, baked beans, coleslaw, crispy Brussels sprouts, pickle spears, grilled pineapple, onion rings, and potato salad.

Once cooked, the sausage, peppers, and onions will easily keep for 3 to 4 days in the fridge, but you can also freeze it for up to 3 months.
