Preparation

Step 1

Pour beer into a 5-quart Dutch oven. Add onion, garlic, cilantro and chili powder; squeeze the lime into the pot and add lime halves to mixture. Bring to a boil.

Pierce bratwurst in several places with a fork. Add to pot and gently boil 10 minutes, until sausages are plumped. Remove pot from heat and cover. Let sausages marinate 20 minutes at room temperature or up to 3 hours in the refrigerator.

Prepare a grill with a medium-high heat. Remove sausages from marinade. Grill 5 minutes, turning frequently until crisped. Toasts buns on grill. Place sausages in buns. Serve with desired toppings.
