Well, the lady and I had at it last night! We took all your good advice, and went to Hank Shaw's "Buck, Buck, Moose" for additional inspiration, and gave it a shot! The Wisconsin-style bratwurst came out very good! (I may use a little less salt next time). We slow-grilled on a Weber kettle grill with indirect heat and hickory briquettes.
Thanks again to everyone! Good luck on your hunts this fall.
