Stout Chocolate and Vanilla Beer Cream Pie with Rum Whipped Cream Friends, you need to make a decision. Let’s say you’re on a deserted (dessert-ed?) island and you can only have one pie, what would it be? Don’t get too caught up with that fact that you’re on an island you don’t NEED pie, you… Read More
Stout Creole Gumbo over Smokey Cheddar Grits This is something you need to be warned about. At least I did and I think we are alike, you and I. When I first started to dive into trying to figure out this food and cooking thing I didn’t know how important some things were, because not… Read More
Chocolate Porter Pecan Bars with Beer Candied Bacon I know, I KNOW! Don’t look at me like that. I know that even though I’m in the midst of promoting my vegetarian cooking with beer book, I give to you a bacon dessert recipe. Is that because I want to make all the people happy, you… Read More
Beer Chicken Satay with Almond Stout Dipping Sauce I have recently discovered, to my abject horror, that I vastly prefer almond butter to peanut butter. Why so horrified, you ask? Because it is, in my conservative estimation, about one thousand times more expensive. And I am cheap. Have I told you this? That I have… Read More
Look at you, you weirdo. Passing all those normal recipes for regular ice cream and coming to visit me and my left of center concoction that involves my two favorite foods. When you ask me what kind of cake I want for my birthday, the answer is no. I don’t want cake (ok, I do,… Read More
Diageo Beer Company USA, sponsored this post. Partnerships with The Beeroness and outside companies only occur when the company’s products are ones I use and enjoy myself. All ideas, words, and opinions are my own. The first brewery I ever visited was in Ireland when I was in college. I’d taken a flight to Dublin,… Read More
Cherry Stout Beer Brownies Don’t look at me like that. I know we agreed that brownies shouldn’t be bastardized by things like nuts or fruit, but this is different. Mostly because I wanted to do it and rules don’t apply when I feel like this, you know how it goes. Just hear me out. When… Read More
Spicy Beer Pulled Pork Stuffed Sweet Potatoes Somedays the internet is just pug videos and Game of Thrones memes and other days it feels so full of trolls lurking just under the surface, waiting with their beady little eyes for the chance to pounce. On the bad days, I have to believe those of us who… Read More
Mini Chorizo Stout Breakfast Tarts (with vegetarian option) It happens to all of us, right? One day we’re young and cool and the next day we’re deciding which grocery store to go to based on home much we like the carts. PLANNING on having people over for breakfast is another one of those things.… Read More
One Bowl Chocolate Chip Beer and Peanut Butter Bread I like that we do this. We make a loaf cake, slice it, serve it with coffee and call it bread. But we both know it’s cake. We call it bread, nod along as we both agree to call it that, and happily devour it with… Read More
Balsamic Stout Mushroom Sandwich with Chipotle Guac and Caramelized Leeks It’s (almost) here. After more than 2 years in the making, it’s finally coming together. The cookbook that started with a vague idea and morphed into Lush: A Season-by-Season Celebration of Craft Beer and Produce is coming to life. It’s up for pre-order on… Read More
Kung Pao Porter Chicken We ALL have that food. The food that you hated as a kid, assuming that you hated all such foods, and then you grew up and realized that you didn’t hate it all all. You had just been force-fed some horrendous version of said food, and once you had a well-made… Read More
Stout Braised Short Ribs over Creamy Pale Ale Polenta I accidentally found my new favorite get-away town on Monday. A four-hour drive to interview a brewery owner for an article I’m writing turned into an overnight stay in a Northern Oregon. A little town that I’m convinced haphazardly, and purely by accident, wound its way into… Read More
Stout Osso Buco Sliders with Gremolata Sour Cream We’ve made it. Made the turn into the New Year and survived to tell the tale. January is about breathing, stepping back, reflecting and fireplaces. Stouts are also a January thing, even when you’ve resolved to be healthy so you can run faster and jump higher. One… Read More
Gingerbread People with Chocolate Stout Pants Leave it to me to booze up a holiday classic. I do that sort of thing this time of year. I also have very specific ideas about gingerbread and cookie making in general I want to tell you about. I can be opinionated about small things far more than… Read More
Pressure Cooker Stout Pho (AKA-The best and easiest way to feed a group) I have a confession. You won’t be surprised, it’s very typical of who I am. The last THREE times I’ve had people over for dinner, this is what I made. All three times. And then I acted like it was creative and… Read More
Easy Chocolate Beer Pretzel Truffles, 4 ingredients, and just a few steps! I have a problem, the sort that will probably be solved with beer-infused chocolate, as most minor problems usually are. My problem (one of many, I’m sure you already know) is that I almost always assume that people—upon first meeting me—don’t like me.… Read More
Bourbon County Beer Marshmallows When you count the seasons by what’s available in the bottle shops, you see the months pass in a different way. Right now we’re just leaving Fresh Hop Season and moving into Barrel Aged Beer season, one of the best beer seasons of the year. It’s also the time of year… Read More
