Ingredients

Sausages

  • 4 bratwurst links

Vegetables

  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced

Seasoning and Marinade

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme

Serving

  • 4 hot dog buns

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  2. Prepare Brats: Pierce each bratwurst multiple times with a fork; this allows flavors to penetrate and prevents them from bursting as they cook.
  3. Make Marinade and Toss: In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, dijon mustard, salt, red pepper flakes, and dried thyme. Add the bratwursts, sliced onion, and red bell pepper to the bowl and toss everything thoroughly to coat with the marinade.
  4. Roast: Arrange the bratwursts and vegetables on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 30-35 minutes, flipping the bratwursts halfway through cooking to ensure even browning. Cook until the brats reach an internal temperature of 160°F and the vegetables are nicely browned.
  5. Serve: Place each bratwurst in a hot dog bun, top with the roasted onions and peppers, and serve immediately while warm for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Use a meat thermometer to check that the bratwurst reaches 160°F for safe consumption.
  • You can substitute red bell peppers with green or yellow if preferred.
  • If you like a bit more heat, increase the red pepper flakes or add some sliced jalapeños.
  • Serve with mustard, sauerkraut, or your favorite condiments for extra flavor.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven or skillet.
