Today in Germnay the bratwurst is still the typical German fast-food. (maybe tied with the Doner Kabab) Many brats are named after their geographical origin, and various areas have their own brats.
Mahtias Hintermann has designed a portable grill that can be attached to a bike, making a compact and efficient way to bring grilling to any outside location.
The grill is designed with compartments that are integrated into one unit. In the grill is the
grill, an area for coal, an area for the grill tong, a boiling compartment, and the lid is also a cutting board. The size of the grill is designed to hold around 4 average brats. To use the grill, you boil them for 15 minutes, then grill for 15-20 minutes.
Hintermann has lots of research on his website to support the design, and he states that there are 500,000 commuting bikes in Germany. He also says that Germans eat 5.9 pounds of bratwurst per year.
The grill has gotten lots of press lately, and is available not just in Germay, but also in other countries. You can see more designs and learn where get on Hintermann’s website. If you like brats, why not bring them along so you can cook them on the go?
