Gourmet Bratwurst Sandwich

A gourmet bratwurst may sound like an oxymoron (definition: contradictory terms that appear in conjunction), gourmet being a cultural ideal associated with the culinary arts of fine foods and a bratwurst typically found in a face stuffing casual environment. Even sillier is the thought of a baseball fan devouring a brat at a fine dinning establishment with ketchup and mustard running down the sides of his mouth or a well-to-do business man delicately cutting into a steak in the bleachers at a baseball game. However, these two worlds can collide quite brilliantly, as done by adding the gourmet flavors of Horseradish and Blue Cheese to our Triple T bratwurst. The rich flavor combination is the perfect enhancement to many dishes including the below gourmet sandwich recipe. 

Gourmet Bratwurst Sandwich


Ingredients: 

- 1/2 cup finely chopped green olives
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

- 4 Horseradish & Blue Cheese Bratwursts

- 2 cups baby arugula

Directions:

Cook bratwursts in skilled over medium heat. Cut cooked bratwursts in half lengthwise. Combine olives and oil, spread on bottom halves of the rolls. Place bratwurst halves on bottom of roll and top with peppers and arugula. 

ENJOY!!!
