4. Turn the brats often. Grill for approximately 20 to 25 minutes or until the onions are tender and the bratwursts are cooked through. (At this point, the smell of the bacon combined with the onions will have your guests flocking to the barbecue.)

5. To serve, remove the toothpicks from the bratwursts, layer the buns with brats and top with the onions.
