Queen City Metts

"A Cincinnati tradition in grilling season with the added touch of a Wisconsinite. The smoked mettwurst is different from the German type, which is more spreadable. You may want to use smoked sausage or kielbasa if metts are not available in your area. Great for camping or grilling at picnic areas that allow fires."

  1. Great Saturday Night dinner. I cut the recipe back to 1 Mettwurst bun. The Mettwurst that I get fom a local butcher is a 2 1/2" round sausage so I cut it in 1/2" slices and cooked it in beer along with the garlic, coriander &pepper - this does add a special flavor! For condiments I added sauerkraut(cooked on the pan when I browned the sausage). German mustard, American Jack cheese and 2 tbsp of Jalapeno Jelly. Thanks Sue this was a really great tasting treat
