📋Quick Recipe Card

🛒Ingredients

• 4–6 beer bratwursts (casings removed)
• 8–10 strips of regular-cut bacon
• 1 tbsp Blazing Star Pork’n Rub
• 4–6 slices white American cheese
• Scorpion Mustard, for drizzling

🔥Instructions

1. Prep the Brats:
   Cut open the bratwurst casings and remove the sausage. Flatten or spread the brat meat evenly over each strip of bacon.
2. Form the Pinwheels:
   Roll each bacon strip tightly into a pinwheel. Press lightly to flatten so the bacon wraps securely around the brat.
3. Season:
   Sprinkle Blazing Star Pork’n Rub evenly over both sides of each pinwheel.
4. Grill or Smoke:
   Place the pinwheels on your smoker or grill (@yodersmokers YS640S recommended) at 350°F.
   Cook until the bacon is crispy and the brat is fully cooked through (internal temp about 160°F).
5. Melt & Drizzle:
   Top each pinwheel with a slice of white American cheese and let it melt.
   Finish with a generous drizzle of Scorpion Mustard.
6. Serve & Smash:
   Serve hot off the grill, you’ll see why this might be your new go-to brat recipe!

💡Pro Tips

• Use regular-cut bacon for perfect crispiness, thick-cut won’t roll as well.
• Chill the pinwheels for 10 minutes before grilling to help them hold shape.
• Try different cheeses like pepper jack or cheddar for flavor variations.
• Add a toasted bun or pretzel roll to turn it into a next-level sandwich.
