Cover and grill for 20 to 30 minutes or until an instant read thermometer inserted into bratwurst registers 160°F turning once halfway through grilling. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Adjust for indirect cooking. Grill as above.).
• Meanwhile, in a Dutch oven, combine beer, butter and onion. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Place bratwursts in beer mixture; keep warm in beer mixture until serving time.
• Serve bratwursts on a roll. Top with thinly-sliced onions, pickles and mustard.

• BBQ the brats about 10 minutes.
• Spray with water while BBQing to form a crisp skin.
• Serve on the roll with mustard and hot peppers or other relish or serve them as your meat for dinner.
