Youâll add your brats to a pot or large skillet and add equal parts liquid â either water and beer or just water â until the brats are covered by liquid. Bring them to a brisk boil but then immediately turn down the heat to a very low boil, more of a simmer than an active boil. Simmer your brats for about 15 to 20 minutes, then finish off on the grill or in a pan with just your brats and a little olive oil to get a nice crispy char and finish.
