Bratwurst is a fresh German sausage that's made using ground veal or pork. Next time you go to a baseball game, try a bratwurst instead of a hot dog!
Bratwurst comes from the Old High German Brätwurst and the roots brät-, "chopped meat," and Wurst, "sausage." In Germany, there are as many as 40 different types of bratwurst, which vary depending on where you are, but most of which are served on a white roll with mustard (often with a side of sauerkraut). The first recorded evidence of bratwurst dates to the 1300s.
