Beer Brined Roasted Cornish Game Hens with Orange Chili Sauce

I want to thank you for how supportive and encouraging you were with the manifesto I posted last week. To be honest, I care more about what you think than I probably should and I’m grateful that so many people are excited about layered and thoughtful food. I started to think about dishes that have [...]

Homemade Garlic Beer Pita Bread

  Do you remember when I told you that once I discovered that homemade corn tortillas where so good it made me realize that I didn’t acctually hate corn tortillas, I just hated those sad cardboard disks they sell at the store? Pita bread is an even bigger revelaiton. It’s not as quick as those [...]

Avocado Risotto with Beer Butter Shrimp

 Avocado season in California is pretty fantastic, avocados are so easy to come by. Of course, they’re great for you. Lots of minerals, antioxidants, healthy fat, but to be honest this is a food I’d eat even if it was bad for me. It’s flavor, texture and even gorgeous color has me hooked. It’s also my [...]

Green Beer Cheese Soup (Broccoli Cheddar) with Pesto Croutons

  I promise you that this is the last St. Patricks day post. Until next year when I will further assault you with recipes for celebrating my love ‘o the Irish, and forcing you to read more stories of my visit to Dublin. Until then, here is a Green Beer cheese soup that contains not [...]

Beer and Butter Poached Lobster with Saison Risotto

Lets Get romantic, shall we? Last year, my Valentines day post earned my quite a bit of hate mail. But, I suppose when you label your post “How Blow Jobs and Shoe Shopping Are Alike,” That’s bound to happen. But the post wasn’t about blow jobs, or shoe shopping, and the hate mail was largely [...]

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 [...]

Beer Pizza Dough

Before we continue with my Beer Pizza Dough post, you have to forgive me for the overly moody dough photos. I was trying franticly to get them taken before I lost all of the light (damn daylight saving). But it could be worse, see:  That pizza dough looks like it should be listening to Radiohead [...]

Chicken in Creamy Mushroom Beer Sauce

    Today is November 6th, Election Day. As Americans spend the day thinking of little else, wedged firmly between Barack and a hard place, I wanted to give you a little motivation to get through this day. We will soon find ourselves at the end of this exhausting Election Season, our feelings of separatism [...]

Hefeweizen Honey Rolls

 I have wandered into a complete obsession with making bread. It started slowly, and really, rather timidly. When I first started, I was afraid of yeast, and a wee bit convinced that it hated me. I threw several mounds of fail dough in the trash after it refused to rise. I learned a few things [...]
