Yum! We made this for my husband's company picnic. We used smoked sausage (it was on sale) and didn't have beef broth, so we substituted some chicken broth with a couple shots of worcestershire sauce. We followed the rest of the recipe exactly (except I didn't marinate the eggs, as other reviews advised), and added swiss cheese as other reviews suggested (i would have preferred cubed, but since we were in a hurry, i just tore up some cheese slices). It was delicious and a big hit! Next time we'll try it with potatoes. Thanks so much for sharing.

Very tasty, but mine LOOKED awful!!!! The egg yolk disenegrated in the dressing giving all a yellow milky look. The flavor? Fantastic!! I know when I make it again I WILL NOT add the egg until just before serving! My friend is German and said in her area they use swiss cheese instead of the egg. That also sounds interesting and I will try that variation as well. Thanks for sharing this tasty treat. I will ALWAYS make extra bratwurst from now on.
