What to add to Tomato Basil Brat

[wdaly]

Jonathon I know balsamic vinegar would have a adverse effect on the protein, but if you could get that balsamic taste, it might make a good caprese brat.

wdaly Since they are making it as a fresh bratwurst I don’t think it would have too much of a negative effect on it and I think that would be worth trying. However, probably a better idea would be to add that as a “topping” so as not to risk it? Bob Stehlik Good call, I really like fennel so i am sure I would like this no matter what!

Jonathon any combination of green, red, or yellow bell peppers much like peperonata except with meat added.

Bob Stehlik I agree a little fennel and maybe some garlic.

mrobisr Jonathon If they want a little heat, I could see Jalapeno in place of the other colored peppers, or some other heat like cayenne or crushed red peppers. Garlic would definitely be a good add for the garlic lovers.

GWG8541 i actually like adding the sweet and spicy peppers together that way i can get enough pepper flavor, but not burn other folks up, most are not as tolerant to the spice level as I am.

Reviving an old thread. Finally got around to making the tomato basil brats. Love this seasoning. I did five pounds total. One pound I added 2 grams of balsamic powder to get a caprese taste. It turned out good but could have used more balsamic taste.

I absolutely would add sun dried tomatoes to this! Perfect rich concentrated savory tomato flavor, perfect humidity for sausage.

Sounds like this would make a great chicken sausage

Dave in AZ The seasoning has a good amount of tomato chunks in it already. Adding some sun dried tomato powder would be good as well. I also added HT mozzarella to it.
