Title: Bratwurst Pizza
Post by: makattak on June 20, 2012, 08:39:42 AM
I had some leftover Brats from Father's Day and decided to try something new.

So, after checking on some websites for ways of doing this, I incorporated a few ideas into one new pizza.

Bratwurst Pizza:

Pizza Crust(I used homemade, but you can make it however you prefer. Mine was a little thin and crunchy.)

2 Bratwurst, sliced. (Somewhat thin, but not pepperoni thin. I'm not certain one could do that with bratwurst.)
Onions and greens peppers, sliced and grilled. (I used half a large red onion and half a green pepper)
~8oz shredded cheddar cheese. (I added a little more as I like cheese)
Pizza Sauce (again, your preference, but I made my own- one can tomato paste, one can tomato sauce, 2 cloves fresh garlic, minced, italian seasonings, paprika, and fennel)

Spread the pizza sauce on the crust.
Add bratwurst and pepper and onions as desired (I put bratwurst first with the onions and peppers spread on top)
Cover with cheddar cheese and bake at 425ºF for 10-15 mins.

Serve alone or with some dijon mustard (or your preference) for dipping.

I may have a new favorite pizza.

I'll be over at 6 pm. What can I bring, drinks-wise?

That sounds... excellent.

Just so long as it's REAL bratwurst, with visible spices, and a coarse grind, and not the stuff that's grey tubes of.. something, bratwurst mix ground to the consistency of hot dog filling I see sold in some places outside Wisconsin or no major Germanic populations.  [barf]

Good point. I didn't specify that, but yes, don't use "hotdogwurst". And as I somewhat alluded to, this is a great way to use any bratwurst leftovers. (On the rare occasion you end up with brat leftovers.)

I will have to try that with some mettwurst.
