You want it HOT, hissing, spitting and on the verge of smoking or just starting to. When you pour the batter it should sizzle on contact with the hot grease.

You can make bangers and mash, it's true. <br /><br />But there is no proper English mustard and I need it to make my bangers taste authentic. <br /><br />Then there are the proper beans needed for beans on toast (with bangers on the side with mustard). It's an endless problem, LSP. You need to open a BRITISH FOOD STORE there in Hill Country and introduce culture there. You must have fresh meat pies. They can't be purchased for love nor money in the USA. And bottles of sauce to go on pies and fish and chips.LLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05538854359365988863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3407817413258733695.post-22062805119682319172017-04-22T07:11:50.392-07:002017-04-22T07:11:50.392-07:00Whew - I was afraid you were going to forget the o...Whew - I was afraid you were going to forget the onion gravy. That looks amazing, LSP. Could I substitute Italian sausage? I'm not really fond of brats (though I recognize that Johnsonville does a pretty decent job with all their sausages.)<br /><br />As for real bangers? Make your own. I love making sausage and it's a zip with a Kitchen Aid. If you decide to do so, I will fill you in on all things sausage that I learned through experience.

Not to nit pick (although I have been known to do just that in the past), don't you mean "Johnsonville original brats?"<br /><br />Having lived in Germany for 6 years, I have to agree that Johnsonville's original brat recipe is about as close to the brats you can get in Munich or Frankfurt as possible.
