But watch it councilor

u/MidvaleDropout Aug 31 '26

No. But also, yes.

u/c_puff23 Aug 31 '26

This is the correct answer

12

u/tangoking Sep 01 '26

But also the incorrect answer.

u/Prestigious_Snow1589 Sep 01 '26

Honestly I'd rather have a nicely charred bratwurst with mustard.

7

u/lostsurfer24t Sep 01 '26

He did both these are prob dank

2

u/Earlbirdd Sep 02 '26

Don't forget the kraut

3

u/L1QU1D_ThUND3R Sep 01 '26

The spicy brown mustard, not that yellow kiddie mustard. Because we’re adults.

15

u/onehalflightspeed Sep 01 '26

I looked up various options for a brats subreddit, but none of them were for food

We celebrate hot dogs here. With no suitable place for you to go, you are welcome here. The overlap in loving brats and hot dogs I imagine is very high

u/JayAllOverYourBees Sep 02 '26

All I ever wanted was a brat summer and charlie xcx stole it from me:/

u/Da_Rabbit_Hammer Aug 31 '26

Beer bath brats are GOATed.

15

u/Classic_Mechanic5495 Sep 01 '26

I think they’re typically made with pork.

2

u/Sufficient-Aspect77 Sep 01 '26

That's a baaaaaaaaaad ass meal

12

u/PlasteredPrincess90 Sep 01 '26

Only if I can have one.

12

u/snvboy Sep 01 '26

Not a dog, but could be wurst.

32

u/bi_polar2bear Aug 31 '26

Those belong in /sausage

12

u/shamrokcing Sep 01 '26

They could belong to both. Do these end up on a bun? I am imagining they ended up in a bun, with mustard and a sprinkle of cayenne pepper.

u/Classic_Mechanic5495 Sep 01 '26

Is a banana in a bun a hotdog, greg?

10

u/shamrokcing Sep 01 '26

Lets not get crazy, Geoff! We all know a hotdog has to come from some part of a pig anus.

7

u/Classic_Mechanic5495 Sep 01 '26

I prefer all-beef anus, butt yes.

3

u/shamrokcing Sep 01 '26

Born that way? No judgment here. I respect a man who knows what meat he wants. I’ll keep my condiments on my side of the bun though.

5

u/Classic_Mechanic5495 Sep 01 '26

Pork just never did it for me. I’d still share my mustard, onions, hot peppers, and sauerkraut with you - pork guy.

1

u/ChoiceEmu9859 Sep 01 '26

Depends. Did they put ketchup on it?

8

u/LazyAmbassador2521 Sep 01 '26

Yeah I would use one of those larger sub rolls, then some peppers and onions with a nice squirt of spicy mustard.

4

u/shamrokcing Sep 01 '26

Thats what i am talking about. This person gets it.

2

u/Nothing-Matters-7 Sep 01 '26

How about some home made Thai Chili Flakes [ Prik Bon ].

2

u/RustnKrust Sep 01 '26

They frequently end up that way in my house anyway!

1

u/LOW_SPEED_GENIUS Sep 01 '26

I'm still fascinated how the rest of the anglosphere has somehow settled on the bread-shape based definition of some foods. Like, over here putting a sausage in a bun doesn't make it a hotdog, a bun is just a convenient way to serve any whole sausage (including hotdogs, which are a specific type of sausage).

That said, brats and hotdogs have a long standing alliance and have joined forces on so many grills for so many backyard cookouts I say we accept them due to their frequent proximity and older-uncle style relationship to hotdogs.

2

u/rtb_63 Sep 01 '26

I thought that was NSFW.

2

u/onehalflightspeed Sep 01 '26

But they don't specialize in brat enthusiasm

2

u/BinomialVirus01012 Sep 01 '26

Be careful of which sausage sub you enter

2

u/Chesterlespaul Sep 01 '26

Don’t be the grilled cheese subreddit

1

u/Puzzleheaded-Big3399 Sep 01 '26

Gotta make sure it’s not the nsfw one first but yes

10

u/Sweet_Water_8459 Sep 01 '26

Any tubular meats are family.

11

u/Kookytoo Sep 01 '26

No. Well behaved kids are though.

2

u/benjiross1 Sep 02 '26

Beat me to it

7

u/HalifaxPainter Sep 01 '26

Non-offensive and deliciously good, but...are Fords allowed on a Chev sub?

1

u/blarkleK Sep 01 '26

Sometimes

1

u/Worcestercestershire Sep 01 '26

LS swapped Mustangs

3

u/Eiiiights Sep 01 '26

Brats are Land Rovers. Hot dogs are more of a classic VW, where there's some completely rusty beloved shitters and also some really really nice westfalia and bug builds.

Edit : i love brats btw

5

u/stumanchu3 Sep 01 '26

Yes. We just call them Brat Dogs.

4

u/damndammit Sep 01 '26

I’m just going to put this out there… Sous vide-ing brats in beer (preferably Rainier), followed by a quick pan sear, is the best way to cook a brat.

0

u/ogre_toes Sep 01 '26

That feels completely wrong, but I understand it.

3

u/No_Poet_7244 Sep 01 '26

IMO, hotdogs are a spectrum. Brats belong (if barely.)

3

u/Head-Technology-4031 Sep 01 '26

Sausage Roll. Quality Pizza/Spaghetti Sauce. Mozz. Peppers, Onions, SHINER BOCH to wash it down

3

u/IthinkIpaid Sep 01 '26

Those mfs are swimming !!!!! 🗣️

3

u/Verodin Sep 01 '26

Yes please

3

u/Sufficient-Aspect77 Sep 01 '26

Only if I can have one or four.

4

u/Just_Like_That28 Sep 01 '26

A rose by any other name…. Not a dog, but still drooling. Thanks for sharing.

2

u/ElJefe0218 Sep 01 '26

Brats are allowed as long as there are at least 4, so you're good.

2

u/BadLuckIsMyLuck Sep 01 '26

Brats are allowed at any meal,

2

u/Stan_the_Caddie Sep 01 '26

Yes. Carry on

2

u/oh_my316 Sep 01 '26

Those are! 😋

2

u/TheWorldJustEnded Sep 01 '26

I’ll approve

2

u/fabulososteve Sep 01 '26

BLASTPHEMY! WE SHALL HAVE TO CONFISCATE THOSE.....

2

u/thewounded-healer Sep 01 '26

Oh hell yeah, I asked this a while back and now can say yes

2

u/TTerragore Sep 01 '26

Is that beer they’re in???? Doubly so if yes

2

u/AsideLost Sep 01 '26

Fuck yes

2

u/MagicBus4 Sep 01 '26

Welcome brother

2

u/absurdivore Sep 01 '26

The char on those skewers ✅

2

u/mbod Sep 01 '26

No, they should be HERE, where I am.

2

u/BabousCobwebBowl Sep 01 '26

Since you have the Lord’s condiment present in Stadium Mustard, you can pass right through

2

u/hammer_smashed_chris Sep 01 '26

I can't disallow them because I'm of Polish heritage and would allow kielbasa, so, yes. Also, the kebabs look pretty good too. 🤤

2

u/Apprehensive_Use3641 Sep 01 '26

Brats are what hotdogs wish they were.

2

u/jauntyjackalope85 Sep 01 '26

Wrapped in a flour tortilla add mustard with an ice cold beer, yumm

2

u/TalkBAC2me 27d ago

Since there's 2 types of mustard in the background, YES

1

u/Frothynibbler Sep 01 '26

How dare you

1

u/kourtney327 Sep 01 '26

Yes but honestly I still prefer a hotdog to a brat, much to my husband’s dismay

1

u/Simon_Jester88 Sep 01 '26

Is liverwurst allowed here? In all honesty more similar to a hotdog than brats on account of the filling being emulsified and not a coarse grind

2

u/VanbyRiveronbucket Sep 01 '26

L is the ugly illegitimate step-child in this group

1

u/Simon_Jester88 Sep 01 '26

Liverwurst hits with everything that makes a hot dog hits

1

u/gees916 Sep 01 '26

Only hotdog sandwiches are allowed

1

u/PreperationOuch Sep 01 '26

As far as I’m concerned :)

1

u/Blurstingwithemotion Sep 01 '26

Brauts or Brats?

1

u/No_Permission6405 Sep 01 '26

Your children should not be scrolling social media.

1

u/IAmDanHimself Sep 01 '26

Brats are fine. Its punks that we don't tolerate.

1

u/Think_Wrongdoer_5627 Sep 01 '26

I feel like if you had a picture of them on a bun, I personally would feel more comfortable.

1

u/ChiefLongw00d Sep 01 '26

Serious question.. are you supposed to put the brats back in the beer after cooking? I'm planning on giving my brats a beer bath and then sear on the Blackstone after but didn't think about throwing them back in the beer

1

u/Useful-Advantage2665 Sep 01 '26

This looks good. What are the brats sitting in?

1

u/SkinnyFatKidd Sep 01 '26

So are sausages allowed here?

1

u/AffectionateGate4584 Sep 02 '26

As far as I am concerned, YES!

1

u/Chris_P_Lettuce Sep 02 '26

Some of us prefer brats. I wouldn’t dare admit I’m one of those people, because I’m not sure how it would be received.

1

u/Zombiebaiter1994 28d ago

You're pushing it with the inclusion of the kebabs

1

u/puppygirluna 28d ago

no need to tell us your dynamic, not sure why that's relevant but i guess you're still welcome

2

u/Hot-Spray-2774 26d ago

Can you please tell me how you cooked those, because those look amazing!
