My husband and I loooove bratwursts. I like to top them with just about anything. The more stuff on top the better! Sometimes, standing over a hot grill in the summer isn’t very fun. I decided to try a new route of cooking our brats and we sure loved them!
Slow Cooker Bratwursts Recipe:
Ingredients:
1 package of Bratwursts (whichever flavor/type you prefer)
1 onion, sliced
2 cups apple juice
4 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 onion, sliced
2 cups apple juice
4 tablespoons Dijon mustard
Other toppings you prefer
Directions:
Brown the sides of the bratwursts in a skillet on the stove. After the sides are browned, place bratwursts in your slow cooker. Top with sliced onion. Mix together apple juice and Dijon mustard, then pour over everything in your slow cooker. Cook on low for 5-6 hours or high for 3-4 hours, making sure they are cooked thoroughly before serving. Serve on a bun with all your favorite toppings.

that sounds so easy and yummy! And I can easily make it vegan, which makes me super happy! <3 thank you!
We like brats, but I don’t fix them often because I think they can get tough sometimes. (I guess maybe I overcook them?) Anyway, this looks super good and it seems like the slow cooker would keep them good and moist. Thanks for sharing!
I LOVE brats. Thanks for the recipe! These look delish.
Hmmm…I think I might have to try these!
Is it possible to replace the apple juice with beer? I usually boil by brats in beer and then grill them or brown them in a skillet and the flavor is amazing! I’m just wondering if the beer would cook down too much…but I supposed I could always cut it with water.
Hi Kristen!
The original recipe actually uses beer in place of apple juice, so I am sure that would be fine!
Would you cook it the same amoUnt of time if the packaged brats are pre-cooked? Thanks so much for sharing this awesome recipe!
Hi Amy!
You could still let the pre-cooked brats cook as long so they have time to soak up some flavor. Hope you like it!
I am making this today and going to blog about it featuring your recipe and lovely blog!
If you use beer you should taste it first to see how sweet or bitter it will get. Both flavors will sometimes come on stronger than first thought.
