Snopes confirms it. Itâs even a violation of copyright to sing Happy Birthday in a restaurant, those Snopes acknowledges that thatâs rarely enforced. (It is not, however, a violation of copyright to sing the song in private settings â only âpublicâ settings.)
Boiling the bratwurst will cook the inside through and allow you to cook the outside to a perfect finish, as raw bratwurst would burn on the outside before cooking all the way through if prepared on a grill or skillet.
Bring the liquid to a simmer but not a full boil, as this could cause the sausage to split. Cook them for about 15 minutes, turning often to expose all sides to the cooking liquid. Cook until the liquid has been reduced and the bratwurst starts to stick to the pan. Remove the sausage to a platter and cook any seasoning vegetables in the hot drippings until tender and slightly browned.
