Roasted Corn, Pale Ale and Coconut Curry Chowder with Brûléed Avocados

  I brûléed some avocados, which, lets me honest, is sort of strange. But it gave this soup a campfirey, smoky flavor that I loved so I’m standing behind the decisions. A decision that was largely based on the fact that I’ve had this brulee torch for over two months and haven’t use it yet. Now [...]

Asparagus Pale Ale Soup

Lately, I’ve been struggling with a creative plateau I can’t seem to push myself past. A dissatisfaction with everything I make. The recipes that just don’t seem creative enough, the photos that I can only see as average, and the sub-par writing. I’ve been trudging through this phase, trying to push myself, and the things [...]

Orecchiette Pasta with Pale Ale Parmesan Cream Sauce

I would venture a guess, that of all the industries in the world, the best people gravitate towards the world of craft beer. These are guys who are more than willing to take a pay cut to make sure the beer they make for you has the best ingredients. These are people who gladly work [...]

Green Beer Cheese Soup (Broccoli Cheddar) with Pesto Croutons

Beer and Buttermilk Fried Chicken

   I’ve been wanting to make you some beer fried chicken for a while now, but it’s a bit intimidating. The best fried chicken comes from the south, it’s a fact of sorts. As is the fact that, other than a few weeks in Atlanta, I haven’t spent much time in the Southern states. And, [...]

Beer Cornbread Topped Chicken Pot Pie

Happy 2013. Anyone broken their New Years Resolutions yet? I love resolutions, I just don’t make those “I’m going to remove things I love from my life” kind. I make resolutions that are more inline with goals. As in: -I’m going to take a homemade pasta class -I’m going to read more food lit -I’m [...]

Ham And Beer Cheese Sandwiches

Your Holiday Ham leftovers don’t stand a chance. Smothered in delicious beer cheese and served on a leftover dinner roll. And don’t be afraid if your previous beer cheese ventures haven’t gone so well. This one is foolproof, I promise. I’ve cracked the beer cheese code. Mostly for selfish reasons. Regardless of the reason behind [...]

Foolproof Beer Cheese Sauce

To be honest, this post is one hundred percent selfish. Since Friday, I haven’t been able to stop watching the news or reading every bit of online news about the recent tragedy. Therefore, the tears are pretty much a mainstay in my life.   And in my emotionally fragile state, I can’t handle a beer [...]

Black and Tan Cookies: New York Deli Cookies Meet Beer Mixology

Black and Tan cookies. This is the hybrid of that great New York Deli cookies, the Black & White, and the Grandfather of Beer Mixology, the Black & Tan.   Although the Black & Tan, a mixture of stout and pale ale, most often brings to mind a Bass/Guinness marriage, it actually dates back to [...]

Chorizo Egg Breakfast Skillet

There is something about lingering over a long breakfast with those I love that just makes me feel like I did something right. Everyone eats dinner, most of us have a few minutes for lunch, but it’s when we take time to sit and spend “valuable, productive” hours of the day actually tasting our food, [...]
