   In a large aluminum pan with deep sides, pour in 2 cans of beer, liquid smoke, 1 stick butter, garlic, jalapenos, and 1 white onion, choppped. Set aside.

2. 2

   Grill brats over medium hot on all sides until browned. Remove from grill and add to the large beer bath.

   Meanwhile, steam one onion and 2 green peppers in 2 T butter. I use my microwave for this. If you like, you can saute them on the stove.

   Cover the aluminum pan with foil and place in a large warming oven on low, or in the regular oven on low heat until ready to serve. You want them in the beer bath at least an hour.
