Traeger Brats Peppers and Onions
We wanted one last summer-ish meal on the pellet grill since fall is quickly approaching. We went with this super simple recipe for Traeger Brats Peppers and Onions.
Actually I got a mix of both brats and metts, plus some sweet corn on the cob which was allll cooked on the Traeger pellet grill.
The key to this successful cook is all about timing, to make sure it all comes out perfect in the end.
How to make Traeger Brats Peppers and Onions
First slice your onion, red pepper, yellow pepper, jalapenos, and mince the garlic.
The weather was gorgeous so I took this opportunity to slice and mince outside on the patio.
Why is cooking outside just so much more enjoyable?!
I put the veggies in a bowl and tossed them with olive oil, kosher salt, pepper, and a Cajun seasoning blend that I love.
But really any seasoning blend of choice will be perfect.
Then transferred them to my grill basket on the Traeger pellet grill that was set to 350 degrees.
If you don’t have a grill basket, just a small baking sheet works too.
These will cook on the pellet grill for around 45 minutes.
Toss them a few times with tongs.
Then add the brats (and in our case some metts and corn on the cob too).
I brushed the corn with olive oil and seasoned with kosher salt and pepper.
Let this cook for another 20 minutes.
Flipping and turning everything a few times.
Traeger Brats Peppers and Onions was our perfect summer meal on the patio!
Gotta have your brat with spicy mustard and plenty of peppers and onions piled on top.
