- 6 Bratwurst with no sugar listed in the ingredients
- 12 Slices of bacon with no sugar added
- 3 tbsp. Butter unsalted
- ½ c. Heavy whipping cream
- 1 tsp. Garlic powder
- Pepper to taste
- 3 tbsp. Cream cheese
- ⅓ c. Low carb beer like Michelob Ultra

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Wrap each bratwurst with two slices of bacon, covering the entire length of the sausage.
- Place the bacon wrapped brats on top of a baking rack that has been placed inside a baking sheet, and cook in the oven for 12-15 minutes.
- While the brats are baking, add 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter to a skillet over medium heat.
- Once the butter has melted, add ½ cup of heavy whipping cream.
- Whisk in 1 teaspoon of garlic powder and pepper to taste.
- Mix in 3 tablespoons of cream cheese, and whisk constantly until it is well combined.
- Pour in ⅓ cup of low carb beer. Michelob Ultra has only 2.8 net carbs per serving, and a full serving is not used in this recipe.
- Add in 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese. Whisk the mixture until well combined.
- Turn the sauce down to low and simmer to thicken while the brats finish cooking. Whisk the mixture once in a while being sure to scrape the bottom so the sauce does not burn.
- Serve the brats on keto friendly bread or sliced into pieces that makes them easy to dip into the cheese sauce and enjoy!
