Prep Time

This Instant Pot bratwurst recipe requires minimal prep time. All you need to do is slice the onions and you’re ready to start cooking. If you’re serving sauerkraut, you can also choose to slice and prepare it while the brats cook.

Cook Time

This Instant Pot bratwurst recipe is ready in 30 minutes. Once you’ve added all the ingredients to the pot, it will take about 5 minutes to come up to pressure. The cooking time is 15 minutes and then the pot will take about 10 minutes to naturally release the pressure.

Ingredients

  • 1 package of bratwurst (about 6-8 brats)
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 1 (12-ounce) can of beer
  • 1 tablespoon of butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Turn the Instant Pot to sauté mode and add the butter. Once the butter has melted, add the onions and cook until they are softened, about 3 minutes.
  2. Add the bratwurst to the Instant Pot and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 1 minute, then add the beer and stir to combine.
  3. Secure the lid on the Instant Pot and make sure the valve is set to “sealing”. Select the “manual” setting, and set the time for 15 minutes. The Instant Pot will take about 5 minutes to come up to pressure.
  4. Once the cooking time is done, let the pressure naturally release for 10 minutes. Then open the valve and carefully remove the lid.
  5. Serve the bratwurst with a side of sauerkraut, pretzels and your favorite beer.

Equipment

You will need an Instant Pot for this recipe. You can also use a large pot on the stovetop if you don’t have an Instant Pot. If you’re using the stovetop method, you’ll need to simmer the brats for about 30 minutes, or until they are cooked through.

Notes

This Instant Pot bratwurst recipe is a great way to feed a crowd. You can double or triple the recipe easily, just make sure your pot is large enough to accommodate the extra brats. If you’re making a larger batch, you may need to adjust the cook time. You can also experiment with different types of beer. Darker beers will give the brats a richer flavor, while lighter beers will give them a more subtle flavor.
