- Buns – We used brat buns which are a little more heartier and hold up well with the toppings.

We love using this recipe for when we have friends and family over in the backyard for a cookout or when tailgating or watching the big game.
Simply serve that brats on buns on a platter and the toppings on the side. Then everyone can grab a brat and top it with their desired toppings. So easy to serve with an impressive appearance!
