Didnt feel like getting none of the big tools out so i used a house tool. Gotta love these griddlers.

Johnsonville got nothing on me.  My wife would say.....You got a broken arm now  ;D

Yep, I was wondering the same thing. Most of what we get here are Wisconsin style brats (like Johnsonville). I have an authentic German style Brat recipe which has caraway in it and it is delicious, but I don't think I've never had a Swiss Brat.

I am going to have to check this out further.

Well the Swiss pride themselves on being neutral...maybe they are afraid of offending someone ;D

In the "Great Sausage Recipes and Meat Curing" book by Rytek Kutas, he has a Swiss Brat recipe that does in fact have Swiss cheese as part of it.  It is a coarse ground brat instead of emulsified, and even has portabellas as part of the recipe.  It sounds like a good one to try one of these days.
