What is Honey Butter?
Honey Butter is a simple yet indulgent combination of creamy butter and honey, creating a smooth, balanced flavor that pairs well with everything from biscuits to cornbread. Inspired by this familiar flavor, we created our No. 781 Honey Butter Bratwurst Seasoning.

Our new No. 781 seasoning captures the creamy decadence of honey butter with a blend of:
-
Butter: creamy and smooth
-
Honey: sweet and golden, perfectly balancing the butter
-
Warm spices: a subtle mix to further enhance the flavor
Pairings
The sweet and buttery profile of Honey Butter Brats pairs perfectly with a variety of ingredients and sides. Here are a few of our favorites:
-
High-Temp Cheddar Cheese: Adds a creamy, melted texture that complements the rich honey butter flavor.

Diced Apples: Brings a natural sweetness and a slight tartness for a fresh contrast.

Caramelized Onions: Sweet and smoky adding more depth.
