The bastion of all thing's male, Maxim.com, has published a new list this month. It's called, in true Maxim-style, "Eat it, America."
The list features 39 places and meals in America that you should eat at if you're "about to drive of a cliff" or "have an incurable disease." Maxim staff says that if you do so you'll "die a happier, slightly fatter man."
Proudly listed between "Best Place To Eat An Entire Animal" (Phillips Seafood House -- Ocean City, Md.) and "Best Mud Bugs" (Hawk's Crawfish -- Rayne, La.) is an item called "Hottest Sausagefest." You guessed it. Milwaukee's own Milwaukee Brat House, 1013 Old World 3rd St., takes the title.
The magazine describes the Brat House like this:
"Located across the street from the legendary Usinger's Famous Sausage, Brat House serves up a juicy, all-pork sausage -- plain or piled with onions, sauerkraut and cheese-and your choice of side for the righteous price of $7. Our rec? The baked beans made with ground sirloin and bacon. Pair with: Dual nine-ounce mugs of ice-cold Schlitz. Then, for the love of God, eat a breath mint."

Surprisingly good quality food here. Pleasant atmosphere, good service. Unfortunate location near a bunch of figurative "sausagefest" bars on 3rd street. Kind of reminds me of a Club Garibaldi for the downtown crowd.

solid atmosphere and food at Brat House, nice people too. Should have been noted in the article that the real reason the brats are so good there is the Miller Baking pretzel sausage buns. They are make or break for an awesome brat. Highly recommend the home chef buy these home grilling or tailgate. They are the bomb!
