We are so proud of you!
Why, you ask?
Well it’s quite simple: you took the first step.
You went to our website, or saw us at a market, and you decided to take a leap of faith. You carefully curated your ideal flavor in your mind, and you manifested your destiny. You saw a vision of meaty goodness. The vision is now reality: you have our meat.
The first step is always the hardest, but you made it happen. You are a dreamer and a believer and you got exactly what you wanted.
Ok soooo… now what?
Now it’s time to cook up those sweet, delicious sausages and get to your true goal: a delectable and divine meat experience. Here are five of the best ways to cook up the sausages:
**make sure to fully thaw all sausages before cooking.
Bake In The Oven: (the easiest method)
Preheat oven to 350*. Cook the sausages on one side for seven minutes, then flip over and cook the other side for seven minutes. For larger diameter sausages such as brats or kielbasa, give them an additional minute or two on each side.
**Bonus serving suggestion: We love this in a hot dog bun with some sauteed onions and mustard!
BBQ On The Grill:
Fire up that grill! We recommend poaching the sausages first to keep them plump
and juicy, and then finishing them on the grill. Whatever you do - DO NOT
PIERCE the sausages!
**Bonus serving suggestion: You’ve already fired up the grill, so add some whole
Peppers, onions, and whole garlic bulbs and grill until the skin starts peeling.
Serve alongside the whole sausages.
Sauté: (best for firmer sausages)
No grill? No problem-o! Preheat a skillet with oil. Slice up the sausages and sauté until a little golden brown either side.
**Bonus serving suggestion: Boil up some potatoes and toss in the pan with Finished sausages slices, halved roma tomatoes, and onion. You’ll thank us later!
Crumble and Pan-Fry:
This is one of the quickest ways to cook your sausages and the most versatile! Remove the casings of the sausages and crumble into a preheated pan and fry until golden brown.
**Bonus serving suggestion: You can add the crumbled meat into literally almost anything. We recommend adding to a delicious ragu sauce for pasta or making a great breakfast stir-fry with eggs.
Poached:
This way can add more flavor than what is already stuffed inside the sausage.
Add a beer of your choice (we of course recommend Flying Dog) to the skillet, making sure to fully cover the sausages. Add sliced onions and garlic. Simmer until fully cooked.
**Bonus serving suggestion: Slice and toss with mixed salad greens, alongside
Some potato salad and coleslaw for a refreshing and light meal.

"MeatCrafters participates in the Saturday Rockville Pike market and the Sunday Bethesda market. Their bratwurst is fantastic!!! I say that as someone who both grew up in Wisconsin and has lived in Germany. Their landjaeger is also great, and something I've not really seen outside of Wisconsin."
