Im sharing sausagefamily in my life as part of a johnsonville sponsored series for socialstars did you know that august august 16th is national bratwurst day? another fantastic food holiday worth celebrating. anyone who knows me knows that i love brats. love, love, love them i think it may stem from my childhood and living in germany for 4 years (military kid). for as long as i can remember i've always loved them. in fact, i've been sharing some recipes with you recently. have you seen my southwestern brats or breakfast brats? both are great recipes that aren't the traditional.
