Although Wienerschnitzel serves up hot dogs all year long, the fast food chain is changing things up for Oktoberfest 2016 by bringing back Grilled Bratwurst. For those who are looking to enjoy a taste of Germany this fall, the new sausages are a perfect choice.
Wienerschnitzel's Grilled Bratwurst sausages are available now through the end of October as a way of marking the annual German festival. There are two options available for ordering the authentic grilled sausages -- either with mustard and grilled onions or mustard and kraut. To give the hot dogs an even more authentic German taste, the chain is using soft and chewy pretzel buns to complement the savory flavor of the brats.
Whether you celebrate Oktoberfest or not, the seasonal promotion offers a delicious new take on the traditional hot dog.
