I am with Bobby on this one.... Brats sound good. I miss those Jimmy's meat market brats from Kenosha.

Brats are good year round. They are great as chili cheese brats, yes I had left over chili and brats so I combined them one day. I was happy with the results.

I made chili with brats once it was really good. We ordered a bunch from the butcher shop here and they were bland and dry. I took the caseing off and browned the meat. Made a good chili.

Oh yeah it was good.
My dad is a retired farmer.
Seems you can't get that out of us.
So he now golfs a lot and farms trout in a few dugouts.

So, to answer the question, both. Bought as fry and caugh by net.
I have a jumbo in the freezer to smoke.
Probably 24" or so, just need to figure out the right brine first.

Made this off of Jesse James's Instagram page, he posts foods every now and again and I usually try them pending....  meatloaf tonight .  I cooked mine in a muffin pan, you get more crunchy sides that way.

Okay....you give me all your onions you can have all my peppers. Ha! (Except the hot ones....I keep those  :wink:). I like raw green and red peppers but don't really care for them cooked. Onions I'll eat raw or cooked. Love them.
