There is a lot of uncertainty right now, but let’s talk about what is certain. Yoga pants and pajamas are socially acceptable all day. Cake can now be eaten at all meals without guilt. And the government has officially declared brewery staff to be considered essential during the shelter in place lockdown. But we already… Read More
Hoisin Pineapple Beer Pork over Coconut Lime Rice How are you out there? Are you ok? If you’re like me, and I kind of think you are, you have two opposite feelings, nearly back to back, and it’s unsettling. My thoughts jump from “Everyone needs to settle down, you are all overreacting!” to “Are we… Read More
Bulgogi Portobello Mushroom Wraps with Pickled Mint Slaw There are days when I feel this is my only useful skill. Feed people. Make food. Cook and bake. So, that’s what I’ll do. I don’t have anything else to offer right now, but I can make you some food that tastes good, a small distraction and… Read More
Beer Chicken Shawarma with Sweet Potato cakes and Tahini Aoili This has been a hard month, for all of us. We aren’t even two weeks in and this month has already had an impact on the world in profound ways. It leaves us all feeling helpless and scared, worried and frightened. I wish I had… Read More
Guinness Corned Beef Tacos with Pickled Cabbage Slaw 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. Every once in a while the stars align and a holiday falls… Read More
Tandoori Beer Lamb Wraps with Mango Mint Salsa and Harissa Feta Sauce Do you remember the first time you had lamb? or Naan? Maybe you don’t, that’s ok. Maybe you grew up traipsing around the Middle East, or with parents who would regularly bring home take out from exotic places. I did not. My mom’s… Read More
Burrata, Mango, Arugula Pizza with Hot Chili Oil and Overnight Beer Pizza Crust I’m going to give you some advice about general safety and well being. If you ever meet a person who doesn’t like pizza: run. Run fast, and far because this is a person who can not be trusted. It’s the core of… Read More
Beer Battered Kung Pao Cauliflower Tacos I like to taco things that shouldn’t be tacoed. Speaking of, “tacoed” is another one of those words that Autocorrect and I disagree on the validity of, like beerified and hangry. And while we are on the topic of things people will disagree with me on, I’m fairly certain… Read More
Hot Honey Beer Prawns I have a confession. This was supposed to be for dinner but instead I ate it over the sink and called it “lunch” as if I hadn’t already eaten. This would drive you crazy if you had to put up with me on a daily basis, I have no ability to… Read More
Pilsner Pappardelle with Harissa Brown Butter, Burrata, and Crispy Basil Is January an asshole, or is it just me? Every year of my life up to this moment, January has been the worst month. It’s soggy and heavy and sad. We’ve just got to keep moving through it as if it doesn’t exist, it’s just… Read More
Gochujang Stout BBQ Burger with Fried Shallots and Blistered Shishitos This is basically an amalgamation of my neurosis, it’s true. First came my full-blown obsession with Shishito peppers that turned in me making them for a dinner party, then for myself, eating all alone over the sink, THEN I had to make something for you… Read More
Michelada Marinated Steak Tacos with Chipotle Avocado Sauce and Beer Pickled Onions If anyone tells you they don’t like tacos they are incorrect. Yes, I know, liking something is technically an opinion, and those can’t be correct or incorrect, except about tacos. I’ll even let those “I don’t really like ice cream” people have their… Read More
Balsamic Stout Short Ribs, so rich and delicious! This is one of those unimpressive-very-impressive dishes. Sounds impressive, tastes impressive, but requires a very unimpressive amount of skill. Some things take skill, lots of it, years of it. Some things just take a long bath in the oven and they come out just right. Every time.… 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
Broiled Salmon with IPA Thai Chili Sauce This is one of those ways that I hide. I pretend like I have it all together (I super don’t), but I can crank out a meal in less than 15 minutes so that makes me feel like I’m an actual grown-up. We all have our things. I… Read More
Spinach Artichoke Dip Stuffed Beer Steamed Mushrooms (perfect appetizer for thanksgiving or vegetarian main!) You guys, it’s here. IT. IS. HERE!! After two years of working and waiting I finally have an actual, real-life, physical copy of my book LUSH in my grubby little paws. It’s gorgeous and by far my favorite book I’ve ever… Read More
After over two years in the making my book, Lush: A Season-by-Season Celebration of Craft Beer and Produce, is finally coming out in just a few short weeks! It is by far, without hesitation, the best thing I’ve ever done professionally. I’m immensely proud of it and I can’t wait for you to see it. To… 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
