Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 25-30 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients:

  • 4 Sawyer Creek Onion & Garlic Bratwursts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 medium red potatoes, diced
  • 2 carrots, sliced
  • 1 zucchini, halved and sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 yellow onion, sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil or melted pork lard
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1⁄2 tsp sea salt (or to taste)
  • 1⁄4 tsp black pepper
  • Optional: chopped fresh parsley or shredded cheese for topping

Directions:

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high or prep a campfire with hot coals.
    (Oven method: Preheat to 400°F.)
  2. Toss the veggies (potatoes, carrots, zucchini, bell pepper, and onion) in a large bowl with olive oil or lard, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  3. Divide the bratwurst pieces and seasoned veggies evenly into 4 foil packets (use heavy-duty aluminum foil, about 12”x12” squares). Seal tightly, folding the edges together to make a pouch.
  4. Grill or cook over the fire for 25–30 minutes, flipping once halfway through. (If baking in the oven, place foil packs on a baking sheet and bake for 30–35 minutes.)
  5. Carefully open foil packs (watch for steam!) and garnish with parsley or a sprinkle of cheese, if desired.

Why It Works:

  • The garlic and onion flavor in the bratwurst seasons the veggies naturally.
  • Foil packs make it perfect for grilling, camping, or easy weeknight dinners.
  • Great for customization—let each family member pick their veggie mix!
