The Brat Box, 20 lbs of Classic Bratwurst

Eighty quarter-pound links of fresh Indiana bratwurst. Ten 32 oz packs, eight links per pack, vacuum-sealed and frozen. Real natural hog casing for the snap, lean ground pork, a clean spice mix. Nothing else trying to fill out the recipe.

Ossian keeps these fresh, not smoked, so the pork stays front and center and the casing crisps the way a brat should when it hits a hot grate. Grill over medium heat until the casing snaps and the internal temp hits 160°F. Load into a soft roll with grainy mustard, sauerkraut, and grilled onions. Or simmer in beer and onions on the stovetop, then sear in cast iron to finish.

Twenty pounds is a season of grilling. Tailgates, backyard parties, weeknights when nobody wants to think about dinner. Pull a pack the night before, leave the rest in the freezer, keep going all summer.

The Maker

Ossian Smoked Meats has run the same brick smokehouse in Ossian, Indiana since 1946. Four generations of the same family on the cure room floor and the sausage line, turning out hickory-smoked pork and fresh sausage with methods that haven't changed because they don't need to. The bratwurst sits in that same lineage: ground in-house, seasoned, stuffed into hog casing, frozen.

I received a”chubby” summer sausage and
promptly tried a great product.
Great flavor for snacking, a meal in the field or enjoying a”social sparkler”.
I look forward to future orders.

I thought the brats were going to be smoked and was disappointed when they weren't but they were pretty good anyway. I have to read the description better.

The Brat Box - 20lbs of Classic Bratwurst

Received in a timely manner but the meats were mainly thawed but still cold. I refroze all but one box which I cooked on the grill. I found them tasty and at approx 5 dollars a pound only slightly overpriced. I may buy again someday.

Nice brats, reminiscent of those I bought from the street stands in Frankfurt when I was a teenager.

Have not tried yet but will .question by smoked does this mean ready to to eat. I want to put on grill but it's to hot for this 85 year old to be out side.
