I was tired of making the same old grilled brats and beer. Since I like spicy food, we decided to give these a try!I used Spanish red onions,added green peppers,then added 1/3-1/2 can of beer.Heated until liquid evaporated and the onions and peppers were limp,then added all the other spices and used Whoop Ass Hickory Hot Sauce instead of chili power and black pepper. These were made on the grill then transfered to the sauce pan with all the other ingredients. Then added 1/3 cup of beer! These were very, very good!I usually do not add recipes to my cookbook, but this one I did!

These smell and taste amazing. I used the onions on hot dogs and they were greatly improved by this tasty accompaniment. My family are not too big on spices so I used chili sauce instead of hot pepper sauce and it worked great for us. This will be a regular dish when we are having burgers or dogs. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
As you can see, I've been on "Zaar quite a while now, and have reviewed quite a few recipes. Just like everyone else who's been around for a while, my rating system has undergone a change.
*****Rocked my socks off. Won't change a thing!
****A good solid recipe. Enjoyed it. Might need a small change for personal preferences.
***Needs some help. Might be an operator error, but can't make it work.
As all the recipes I choose are chosen because of the ingredients that we like, I will not give less than ***. And, please, keep in mind that this is only my personal opinion. Someone else might think it is wonderful and give *****. So keep posting!
BTW, if I forget to thank you for taking the time to prepare one of my recipes, it is unintentional!
My biggest passion is my reading. I can't go to bed at night until I have read something, even if its the back of a bag of potato chips! But that ain't gonna happen. I have over 300 books in my bedroom book shelves, and we have even more in the rest of the house!
