1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 hot dog buns
Mustard and sauerkraut for serving (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, ensuring that it’s clean and well-oiled to prevent sticking.
Prepare the Bratwursts: In a small bowl, mix the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt. Rub this mixture onto the bratwurst sausages evenly.
Grill the Bratwursts: Place the bratwursts on the preheated grill. Cook for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally until they are browned and cooked through to an internal temperature of 160°F (70°C).

Toast the Buns: During the last few minutes of grilling, place the hot dog buns on the grill to toast lightly.
Serve: Remove the cooked bratwursts from the grill and place them in the toasted buns. Top with mustard and sauerkraut if desired. Serve hot with your favorite side dishes.
