Enjoying America's favorite pastime: eating

Join MinnPost Thursday night for America's favorite pastimes: eating brats and drinking beer. Oh, and watching baseball as well! MinnPost is sponsoring Twitter-My-Face Night at the St. Paul Saints, Thursday, July 23. Nothing goes better with baseball than beer and brats, which brings me to this week's #mp140 question:
How do you top your brat? Sauerkraut and mustard? Chili peppers and horse radish? Sweet or savory... or a little of both? What are the key ingredients to top the perfect brat?
Join Twitter, follow MinnPost and tweet the perfect brat topper! Be sure to include #mp140 in your tweet. This week's winner will receive two tickets to the 2009 Renaissance Festival in Shakopee. Contest winner will be announced via tweet during the Saints versus Saltdogs game Thursday night.
Hope to see you (and your tweets) at the game Thursday night! Click here for more info.
This week's winner:
rfordice #mp140 simmer in Fat Tire, onions, green apples, keep onions/apples for topping brats after grilling. Perfection.
