They’re a fan favorite for tailgates, family reunions, and Oktoberfest celebrations!   Meggan’s notes Thanks to German immigrants who settled the area, my own family included, Milwaukee has deep German roots, which is why bratwurst is such a big deal there.My own personal bratwurst expertise comes from years of watching my family prepare juicy sausages for tailgates and backyard get-togethers.This air fryer bratwurst keeps things simple, but if you want that classic Milwaukee-style flavor, you can first simmer the brats in beer and onions before air frying.

Just follow the steps in my Wisconsin Beer Brats recipe using a half batch, add one or two cans of beer (substituting some water if needed), then transfer the brats to the air fryer for browning.It’s an extra step, but totally worth it for that rich, beer-infused taste.Pile them high with toppings like homemade sauerkraut and homemade whole grain mustard to really make my immigrant ancestors proud!
