Beer-Simmered Brats

1 can of your favorite beer
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
5 brats

Prepare grill for direct grilling and preheat to medium.

Place beer, onion and brats in medium pot and bring to gentle boil over medium heat. Let brats simmer gently until partially cooked, 6 to 8 minutes. Do not let brats boil, or they will burst. Drain brats well.

Place brats on grill parallel to grates (to hold brats in place) and grill 5 to 7 minutes per side. Internal temperature of brats should be about 170 degrees when serving.
