calldoctoday yeah the bacon cure won’t make it taste like bacon. I’d definitely add some chopped and ground bacon if you want to add a bacon flavor to it. Could do that as a fresh or smoked brat still just fine.

I would add sure cure instead of a “complete cure” or some sort of maple bacon cure. Our blue ribbon maple bacon cure is 0.60% nitrite but sure cure is 6.25%. that means the maple bacon cure has a ton of salt and sugar in it. Adding that to your brats will definitely make them too salty because you would be using 10 times more of the “cure” to get the right amount of ingoing nitrites. A long time ago, we sold some sausage seasonings that were designed to be used with a “complete cure” like the maple bacon cure and we had to formulate them with a lot less salt…A LOT less salt. I’d dont think you’ll pick up enough flavor from a complete cure to justify using that over sure cure. Your flavor comes from the brat seasoning and smoke flavor. So, I’d use sure cure (1oz per 25lb batch) and the you don’t have to worry about the small amount of extra salt that would include. Let me know if you have more questions about anything there.
