Hot Crab and Beer Cheese Stuffed Artichokes I know there are a lot of ways to stuff an artichoke, but this is the way I like to do it. You COULD cut it in half. You COULD stuff a bunch of crap between the leaves, but that’s not how I stuff things into my vegetables. … Read More

Beer Butter Garlic Knots, one hour and so delicious! You know how the word “slather” is really gross but we say it anyway?

Beer Apple Fritters with Vanilla Maple Glaze Is it just me or are we all hypochondriacs right now? Was that sneeze allergies or a deadly virus? Is the house too hot or do I have a deadly virus? Did I eat something weird or do I have a deadly virus? It’s nonstop. But on the… Read More

Rosemary Olive Oil Beer Biscuits with Tomato Garlic Confit (dairy and egg-free) I have a theory.

We’ll have a mid-day coffee,… 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

Beer Battered Fried Green Tomato BLT Sliders with Chipotle Crema It’s that time of year again when I stop pretending. Stop pretending that the summer isn’t almost over, that football season is back and, most importantly, that the over abundance of green tomatoes in my garden will actually ripen. This is fine, all of this.… 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
