Boil them in water or beer if you prefer for about ten minutes. Put a whole bottle of the Tigersauce in the pan and fill it up a little over half full with the pepsi and bring it to a slow boil on the grill for a few minutes until it reduces a bit. It will thicken as you go so don't focus a bunch of effort on reducing it too much. What you need to do is put the Brats in the pan and coat them in the syrupie mix that you made then put them on the grill for a couple of minutes. Then put them back in the pan and coat them, then back on the grill. You do this cycle three times. It's imperative that you coat them and grill them three times. The syrup will caramelize and coat the Brats. They don't require any condiments at all. They are fantastic. I highly recommend a nice potato roll to eat them on. It really sets them off. Your guests will love them.

And here's a video that I made of a few of them being prepared:

Thanks, Ill be grilling some of those soon

Nolan, you are such a good sport when people give you crap about your name, which can only mean that it isn't true.

If it were, you wouldn't be so amused by it.
Either way I ain't worried about it! I got a belly these days and its like exercise if I wanna see him!!!

We had one h#ll of a storm last night. It was a microburst winds near 100 MPH. It touched down about 1/4 mile from my house. It was just a freak thing. I was lucky only lost a couple of trees on the edge of the woods.

Luckily no one was hurt. The power line that run through the back of my property had a branch hit the 13 KV lines causing a huge power surge, thank god I put a main line sure suppressor on my house or I would have lost a lot of electronics.

Jim, glad no one was hurt. That sounds like kind of a freak happening.

Good thing you're and electrician and had yourself all set up.

Hey beautiful. Need an expert carpenter? Buy my fuel, I am about 50 miles from I-40 and will be there with my tools so fast it'll make Randy dizzy.

Well, I put up wanescoting in the dining room and I just have some trim work to finish, I needed my brother's Miter to cut the angles I needed.

I put up a picket fence around my back patio, just to give it a cleaner look. I have a few panels to secure and I have to paint those.

I need to put some new closet doors up in the master, I pulled the old one's out when I bought the house. It had those full-length mirror retro style sliding doors....

And just a few other odds and ends, like new socket covers, touch up painting, put in a few transition strips, and setting the bedrooms up for show.

I planted a few bushes this past spring that died like overnight a few weeks back, so I need to replace those with something that isn't dead, and go out and pull all the weeds and whatnot.

uhh..I think thats it! I should be able to do all that by Sunday night.

Mark, I really appreciate the offer, but I should be able to handle these projects without the help of a professional. Besides, I think the fuel to get you out here would break my bank.

Here are some pics of my house:

Lisa, if that's a laminate floor. Who did it? I just finished a huge one for a friend. Did not get paid, but she sure is happy. I've a whole chest full of thank yous from over the years. I also put a high dollar laminate in my motor home (about a 1/3 of it) and promptly sprung a water leak and pretty much ruined it. I don't have the heart or the dollars left to ever repair it I don't think.

Thanks Chris. You shoulda seen it when I bought it. It was a mess. I put in the wood floors, painted the entire inside, entire outside, new tile floor in the kitchen, refinished the cabinet and countertops, got the yard to come back. This house was an ugly duckling when I bought it.

Its a 3bd 2 bath in old town Englewood on 2 lots. I'm putting it up for 155. You think that'll generate some interest?
