Pork bratwurst, often referred to as "pork brat," is a type of sausage traditionally associated with German cuisine. Made from finely ground pork, it typically includes a blend of seasonings like salt, pepper, nutmeg, and other spices for flavor. Some recipes may also feature garlic, onion, or herbs. Pork brats are renowned for their rich, savory taste and are often grilled, pan-fried, or simmered. While a good source of protein, they are high in fat, particularly saturated fat, and may contain added sodium, making them a less heart-healthy option. Brats are commonly enjoyed at barbecues, Oktoberfest celebrations, or alongside dishes like sauerkraut and pretzels. To make them a healthier choice, pair them with nutrient-rich sides like roasted vegetables or whole-grain mustard, and consume them in moderation.
