    Just curious if anyone has some good recipes that use beer.
    Or, some of the benefits of having a beer.
    Or, what's your favorite beer and why.

    Beer Brats:
    Ingredients:
    1 dozen brats
    Beer, to cover
    1 medium large sweet onion
    2 ounces (1/2 stick) butter
    Directions:
    Place brats in a Dutch oven with onions and butter, cover the brats with beer. Bring to a boil and reduce to simmer until brats are cooked. Remove brats and set aside beer mixture. Grill brats until golden brown and return to beer mixture until ready to serve. Serve brats on fresh baked brat buns with sauerkraut, onions, green peppers, ketchup, and/or mustard.

    I like to use Guinness or some kind of stout.

    Sounds good Surf,
    Using stout would be a radical departure from a "regular beer", does it have a richer flavor?

    I will tell you something about beer. The other day I was in the most pain I have ever suffered, and no pain pills worked, and believe me, I have the strongest. Ice, or heat, or anything would not stop my pinched nerve from hurting. My wife and son started buying me beer at my request and after not sleeping for 3 days, I drank over 30 bears in one day and night, and I finally fell asleep. Thank God for beer. Since then, I have had a cervical epidural and my neck is much better, but I think I would have died without that tasty malted beverage called BEER.

    Dang Mick. Sorry to hear about that, but glad beer and an epidural took care of it.

    I'm actually not a big beer drinker, but sometimes it is a must.

    To me, Summertime is Beer-Time.

    Times that beer must be consumed:

    1. At a baseball game.
    2. At the beach.
    3. While eating a hotdog.
    4. Lounging at the pool.

    And any combination of the above.

    As far as beer in cooking, I definitely use it in chili. Laura uses it in several different things she used to make in the crock pot when she was a working mom with a kid in high school. Now he is off to college and I do 100% of the cooking.

    I do think that it gives them a richer flavor and does great with the onions. I actually stole that from Bobby Flay on the Food Network website lol. I love that guy.

    Kevin you should add while eating oysters to your list. In my opinion Apalachicola oysters are the only oysters to eat though.

    Yeah, definitely surfmac - while eating oysters is added to the list.

    Except, last night I ate oysters while drinking a martini.

    As an example to others, and not that I care for moderation myself, it has always been my rule never to smoke when asleep, and never to refrain from smoking when awake.

    JC, I feel obligated to admonish anyone who advocates alcohol abuse.

    3. Discard 1/2 the beer, leaving the remainder in the can.

    It should read:
    3. Drink 1/2 the beer, leaving the remainder in the can.

    Beer has food value but food has NO beer value, so eat beer.

    Okay Lawrence I get the part about drink over discard, but please understand that chicken's butt only requires the cheapest swill you can find.

    Guinness is food. Everywhere in England I saw billboards that says "Guinness, it's good for you". I thought that was a hoot.

    I'm not a large quantity or high incidence beer drinker. That being said, I do love a good beer. My taste in beer seems to be much like my taste in everything...I like beers that are well made. There isn't a type of beer made that I don't care for. As long as it is a well made beverage I'm in. Everything from Germanic lagers to Belgian ales to a good ol' pint of the British black stuff seems to be a great accompaniment to the pipe.

    I love beer so much, that I used to subscribe to Beer magazine. My son has been saving beer bottle caps since he was a kid. He has a 3 foot tall plastic beer bottle completely full. No kidding. Over a thousand.

    I wonder, pstlpkr, if those women have had enough! The one on the left is starting to get there (see the waistband)...

    If you think you can or can't do something, you're right.

    The good thing about beer is it keeps more people from finding out about the joys of a single malt scotch . It can be used to put out bbq flame ups . .

    “There was an awful suspicion in my mind that I'd finally gone over the hump, and the worst thing about it was that I didn't feel tragic at all, but only weary, and sort of comfortably detached.”

    The black stuff's from Ireland, not Britain.

    I only drink beer because the water round here doesn't get you pissed-up.
