These German(ish) Bratwurst Burgers have all the glorious flavors of a brat in the form of a burger. Seasoned with nutmeg, ginger, caraway, marjoram (an herb in the mint family), and a few tablespoons of French’s Classic Yellow Mustard to brighten the flavor, these pork patties are proof everything is better served between a fresh brioche bun. Top with sauerkraut and a generous squeeze of mustard to bring out the zing.

    ground nutmeg

  • 1/4 tsp.

    ground ginger

  • 1

Directions

    1. Step 1In a medium bowl, mix the pork with the mustard, mustard, garlic powder, white pepper, marjoram, caraway, nutmeg, ginger, and 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt until well combined. Shape the brat mixture into 4 equally sized patties, about 4" wide. 
    2. Step 2Brush the onion rounds with oil and season with salt and pepper. 
    3. Step 3Heat a grill or grill pan to medium and oil the grates. Grill the patties and onions until a crust develops on the patties and they're no longer pink and the onions are lightly charred and crisp tender, about 6 minutes per side for each. Remove from the grill to a plate.
