Smoked Bratwurst

Smoked bratwurst can be stored in the refrigerator at 2-4°C for about 7-10 days – significantly longer than fresh bratwurst. Smoking over beech wood naturally preserves the pork and gives the coarse sausage its characteristic flavor. When frozen, the quality is maintained for up to 3 months. When thawing, make sure to thaw the bratwurst slowly in the refrigerator to ensure optimal taste and consistency.

Before frying or grilling, you should let the smoked specialty rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes. This ensures it cooks more evenly and the spices develop their full aroma. A tip: Combine the hearty sausage with caramelized onions and medium-hot mustard for a perfect taste experience. Also discover our fresh bratwurstfor even more variety of enjoyment.

All our raw sausages and air-dried sausages, as well as our smoked bratwurst, are shelf-stable without refrigeration. If you store your raw sausages in the refrigerator, it can often lead to the formation of a white noble mold after about a week due to the lack of drying. This is not a problem; it simply means the mold is thriving. So, if you don't want that to happen, eat them sooner. Alternatively, you can hang your sausages in your pantry, but the boss, for example, simply hangs his sausages over the sink at home for one night. As the sausages continue to dry out, their flavor changes, and their shelf life increases. This way, you can cure your sausages for up to 3 or even 4 weeks. For a sliced salami, however, you should store the slices well protected from light and moisture. The drying process has already reached a point where the sausage is well preserved. So, enjoy your salami slices within 7 to 14 days.
