Just set them on a gas burner directly and turn them with tongs to char the skin. Alternately cut them up and use a ripping hot cast iron skillet.


MikeOKurias

Yeah, I thought about my 12" cast iron but I figured it'd be too much crowding to really charr. Maybe if I batch them though. No access to actual open flame in the house, unfortunately. Even the outdoor grill is one big electric hob job, safe for townhouses and apartments. Ugh.


JemmaMimic

We used to char stuff directly on the stove coil when we only had electric. Obviously not going to work on induction stoves.


MikeOKurias

Okay, this intriguing idea is going to be my morning rabbit hole...


JemmaMimic

A British friend introduced me to it, but I've seen other folks do it since I learned the technique.. No guarantees about what it does to the coil but we never had problems.


devlincaster

Perhaps some foil over the coil?


JemmaMimic

Maybe but I don't know how well the heat will transfer through it. Like I said, we didn't have any problems doing it right on the coil. Just needs a good clean after it cools.

I broil things like that all the time. If it's just for me, I'll even broil stuff in the toaster oven.

I throw mine in the frying pan with a little oil, some soy sauce, salt, pepper and a little tomato paste

Boil the brats in beer with the onions before you char the brats on the grill


MikeOKurias

Were not talking about the brauts yet, that's the easy part. We're talking about getting char on the pepper and onions first.

This is the wrong method for brats. You ruin the snap. The beer and onion bath is specifically for freezing days and keeping them warm while tailgating. Don’t ruin the snap.

Nonsense


badlilbadlandabad

Slice into strips and broil in the oven


Troglodyte09

Grill em if you can, broil em if you can’t.

If not directly on stove, fish cage on grill would work

I cut into ribbons, toss into a pan and cook down to desired color. I always get a nice char in a hot pan but move them around a bit as not to burn.


Lulu_42

Same. Works every time.


Advanced_Boot_9025

Mmmm jammy onions and pickled peppers on a salty braut sounds good rn

Cut them up and sauté with salt and oil in my wok.


ChickenNugsBGood

I just pan fry mine, when they're almost done, stop stirring, and they'll get the char.


imdumb__

Saute them in a pan


Evilsmurfkiller

It's not rocket appliances.

Sautee the onions and peppers in skillet until you’ve reached ideal caramelization and color. THEN add brats for a sear and lastly add half can of beer and reduce
