Description
The Bratworks Ltd. is a family-operated business owned by Ann and Dean Fagan of Bucyrus, Ohio. The company began in 1987, mostly as a concession business. The Fagans traveled throughout Ohio serving bratwurst sandwiches at local fairs and festivals. In 1997, Dean purchased the property he was leasing for his manufacturing facility, which became the BratWorks Drive- Thru at 574 South Sandusky Avenue.
As the demand for retail brats from the BratWorks grew, so did the need for a more accommodating manufacturing facility. In 1999, the company moved their bratwurst making facility to 100 East Center Street and became federally inspected, allowing them to ship across the continental United States.
Dean is the developer of all the BratWorks' recipes. He takes special notice to combine just the right blend of seasoning and pork. What is behind his special blends? Well, many years of working with the legendary Bucyrus German bratwurst maker, Bob Hoelzel. But even more importantly... Dean's love of a great tasting brat!
