Cooking onions in beer and brown sugar breaks them down and caramelizes them making them the perfect topping to an already delicious brat.

This recipe works with pre-cooked or uncooked brats, small or big links, very finely ground or coarser grinds, brats made with beer or cheese already in them or not, heavily spiced or less so, all pork or mixed meat, Bavarian or not, store-bought or home made.
